Thumbs up New Additions - added the muffler hangers.

Added a few doodads to my 98 SuperHawk. Just rode her 1500 miles and she didn't miss a beat. She earned 'em.

Click to enlarge.



Red trimmed Sargent seat, Skidmarx belly pan, Two Brothers M2 Vale CF slip-on's, Puig double-bubble, red grips, & gold bar-ends.

I really like the way it looks & sounds now.

Where did you source the Skidmarx belly pan?

Love the Skidmarx belly pan. Did you have it painted or is that the red it comes in from Skidmarx. Looks like a good match.

Bike looks good.

Thanks. That is the way it is delivered. Not repainted. It is a very close match. Mounted up very easily and solidly too. Very solid fiberglass piece, and seems to hold some fluid, if you are a racer, found out after I washed it, lol.

Nice! Had I known it'll be such a close match, I'd have gone for red. Instead, I have the black one. Black bellypan may be a bit too subtle... BZ

Well, at only $230 shipped (for me), it's worth getting another red one, and sell your black one here.

Talking Added the Thurn muffler hangers

Mounted up her new (to me) Thurn muffler hangers. Used all the stock hardware and a couple spare, 1 inch long 3/8" sockets temporarily.



Had to spacer them out a bit, as the Two Brothers muffler straps expect a middle of the can mount, and they were sucked in too far.



Even with the spacers, the low-mount Two Bros really pull in tight with these!



Almost too tight! Might have to bump up to 1.25" spacers.



Raining today, so the rub test will have to wait.

Thanks Micky!
