Updated pics 2004 black SH

UPDATED pictures, scroll down to post #25

Ive done a few more things to the SH since I last took pics, so I took a few more this morning. Basically I just removed the SuperHawk 996 stickers from both sides and trimmed back my rear fender more.

Next on my short list is:
Pazzo levers
Helibars(this bike is my commuter and 2up bike)

They're holding up well, im actually fairly impressed with them, they stick really well. I picked up the bike used and they were brand new when I got the bike. I have about 2500 miles on them so far.

The black with gold wheels looks killer.

The front signals are the Lockhart Phillips style flush mounts. The rear are Short Stalk style signals.

Im still not in love with the gold wheels. I dont know, maybe if it was a lighter shade of gold.

Don't let that thing fall in the pool! I love the black but the gold wheels aren't my favorite either. But they might grow on you... or there's a pair of chrome wheels on Ebay right now.

The gold wheels are finally starting to grow on me. I think the fact that im looking at Daytona 675's and the have the black w/gold wheels model that looks really good is helping.
SO... what im thinking about doing now is picking up a set of 900rr/VFR spoke wheels and have them finished in a light annodized gold.

I would like to take credit for the pool, but, its my aunts house, not mine. I was house sitting for two weeks when I took the photos. Let me tell you, I had all kinds of fun in that pool during my stay!!

bikes awesome. dont try the pilot road 2ct's if you commute of j/ ride around, i put them on, thought i d be makin few trips to the mountains, well trips fell through because of work, they only lasted 1200 miles, mainly highway from home to college to work and back, i did like em because you didnt have to take it easy to warm them up to stick, and on a few really nice roads around house they were excellent, but i ride my superhawk year around 7 days a week unless rain, cold dont bother me

Thanks for the heads up on the Road 2ct's, I may just go with the regular Pilot Road's. Ive used them before and they last forever, and im not the easiest guy on tires either.

Ya, I just couldn't let her go. I had 2 serious buyers, full price offers. I couldn't do it.

I need to make it up your way soon for a ride. Im living way out west now so im even closer to you, coming in the back way(wickenburg).
