Hi!! Newbie here....

Post by Snoogle »

Now then guys, just a quick introduction....somebody from the Superhawk Forum told me to get on here as I'm from this side of the pond so I did.

I live in Lincoln. I bought the bike in Feb this year after having passing my test in December last year. It's my first big bike and I'm enjoying it. I have ridden bikes before ranging from R1s and Ninjas to Z1000s (under completely controlled environments off road, of course) none of them have the character of this though.

My bike is a 98 in yellow with belly pan, dark double bubble screen, Power Bronze crash bungs and twin Art race cans. I've just added some adjustable levers because the ones that were on were absolute garbage, some clear indicators and a tail tidy. I also have a rear seat cowl and undertray with LED lights to go on when it gets painted!
In the near future is a respray in white/black, single side the exhaust and a foot-peg drop. Possibly in the distant future I'd like to change the front end and clocks and swap to a single sided swinger when/if funds allow. I would love to go balls out with all kinds of different ideas I have, but, think It's going to be limited to mainly cosmetic changes for the time being.

Anyway hope you guys like the pics, I know it doesn't look much different from a standard bike but I'm working on it......

You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.

Oi!!! Mr Mon...The only reason you can see the pics and we can't,is because the faster yellow owners, don't need to see what beauty lies before them, we already know!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Welcome Sam, enjoy!
