Greetings y'all. Been a lurker here for months. Live near Fort Worth, Texas (near Dallas) and picked up my first SuperHawk as a Christmas present to myself last year. I have put ~3500 miles on it this year due to our year round riding season. She's a beaut, a pristine '98, born in 09/97, and only had 2000 miles on her when I got her. This picture was taken January 6th, 2012.



Really enjoy reading this forum and getting input from people around the world.

I also have a '99 Suzuki Bandit 600S that doesn't get ridden much anymore, lol.
Some other bikes I have owned and loved, 97 Triumph Sprint Sport (road only-some engine work with flat slide carbs & pipe-sold), 93 Ducati 900SS (road only-with turbo kit-sold), '90 Honda NT650GT Hawk (mini fairing & load pipe-stolen), '90 Honda CB-1 (road and raced-sold), '85 Yamaha RZ350 (road and raced-sold), 87 Honda Hurricane 600 (raced only-destroyed while racing), various '74-'75 Yamaha RD350's (road and raced-sold), '83 Yamaha XT200 (road and dirt-sold)

Welcome from this side of the pond Doug.

As you have been lurking for so long you will have read about our workshops

I am sure you know what is coming next!

We need to know how much it would cost to container about 20 bikes over to Fort Worth cos you are holding the next one!

And it can be in November or January, get me out of this place for some real warm weather

You up for it?

Please add your name if you fancy going over to the USA as a guest of the racer

Lol, well you better get here soon. Our European-acceptable riding weather is almost over, it was 90 today. Riding all year here usually seems to involve some suffering. It's actually easier to ride during the Winter. It takes a hardy soul to ride in our 110+ degree summers. I spend a lot of time training outdoors, so I get somewhat conditioned to it, but it's still rough. I have a Vanson Pro Perf jacket that I wear when the air temp gets up there. Helps a lot. God how I would love to see 20 SuperHawks in the same place. They are pretty rare here.

Welcome buddy how you doing
bike looks great even though its red
the weather looks even better
