Identify this lower

So I was looking through some old posts and came across the for sale thread for YardSticks Shawk, seems its a mystery what lower is actually on that bike so I asked him if he minded me throwing up a thread about it.

so here goes...

what lower is this? pretty different....i kinda like it

had a feeling it might be but wasn't sure.

Iv got an idea:

Im always seeing pics of weird bodywork on superhawks and searching to try and find out what it is and where it came from and normaly coming up empty and having to ask because that kind of stuff is really just hard to get out of a search...so.... when I get a chance im going to compile a list of all the body peices for the hawk and make a thread with every part with pics and sources (if available) for it.

I think this would be pretty usefull to alot of people...hell Iv been looking today for more pics of hawks with the OEM style lower like I have and cant even find that (someone will surely tell me its aftermarket now that i mention it....)

anyway, does anyone want to get the ball rolling and list what body peices they can think of for this off the top of their head?

I can think of this:

Sharkskinz
Magical Racing
Mario Nova
OEM Bellypan
Pyramid

Mounting points are different! But it is pretty much the same exact thing.

Yes it is. Its the carbon fiber lower, it was about $400. I sent them an email on their American site, since its on their Japanese site. Simon responded and said it wouldn't be a problem. Took about 3 weeks to be made, and I got it the a week after they sent it out. The exhausts were off, I was trying to clean the shoe sole off of them.

that is a great thing. moriwaki stuff took about 8 months?? or something similar - so long that I'd forgotten I ever ordered it. price sounds very similar but those were 07 dollars

you should post a separate thread about its availability.

thanks
