Figured there may be a few folks in here who would appreciate this.
'89 Honda Hawk GT. Just under 14k original miles. Very well maintained, a few tasteful mods, and tons of new parts. Here's the breakdown;
-Vortex 41mm clip-ons
-NEW MotionPro pull throttle cable
-NEW MotionPro push throttle cable (not installed, but new in the bag)
-NEW MotionPro clutch cable
-NEW CRG bar-end mirrors (black 3" Lanesplitter models <-- folding!) - available separately
-Superbike grips
-"vintage" Two-Brothers V1 Race exhaust
-custom extremely lightweight rear exhaust hanger/footpeg delete (not yet pictured)
-jets and airbox are original
Recent maintanence includes;
-Kreem treated gas tank
-all new fuel lines with new clamps (not worm drive garbage)
-new fuel petcock
-new fuel filter
-new battery
-new spark plugs
-fresh oil and filter (less than 1k miles old)
-new front EBC HH pads
Additional items include;
-T-Rex brand single sided swing-arm stand (fantastic stand, and easy to use by yourself)
-original rear view mirrors
-original cables
-original rear pegs
-spare fuel pump
-spanner wrench for the rear shock adjustment
Also have the original turn signals. I took them off in anticipation of replacing them with the Buell pieces, but turns out the nearest Buell dealer is a bit of a drive, and I just haven't gotten around to picking up a set. I can re-install the originals if the buyer wishes, as no modifications have been made to their mounting points, or the wiring.
The bike fires right up and idles well, which is good, because the original choke cable is broken (split at the clip-on) Only once has the bike ever threatened to not stay running without throttle imput/choke, and that was firing it up from cold in low-50 degree weather. No oil or coolant leaks, clutch is good, no shudder/thump from the cush-drive, etc. Runs and rides beautifully!
The frame is in fantastic shape; not dings/dents/etc. The front fender has paint chipping away around the edges, but it's not very noticeable. The tank is in good shape, but has 1 very small outward ding on the side, and another on the backside (too small to get photographed well.) The rear cowl is in good shape as well, but has 1 of the typical stress cracks near the middle mounting point. It's a very fine crack, and can't be seen from the outside when the cowl is mounted. It also hasn't gotten any larger in the time I've owned the bike.
Tires are Dunlop Sportmax Qualifiers, with tons of life left. Rear is a slightly oversized 160, giving it a more substantial look.
Overall, the bike is in really nice shape. It rides very well, sounds beautiful, and is a real head-turner. I have every receipt since I've owned the bike.
Yes; it's winter storage spot is my living room. I'm that obsessive
I honestly wouldn't hesitate to ride this bike anywhere. Fly in, I'll pick you at the airport, and you can ride it home. I'll even box up and ship you the stand and the extras!
$3,000, or $3,100 with the CRG's
