Well maybe not THE loudest, but certainly a "little throaty." In response to all the Q's I get about my shorty Bomb muffler, here is your answer:

hey mate, that thing sounds badass. what all do you have got in there? is it one of those stroker motors I was reading about in one of the other posts?

[jaysun0ne]

well to get 89 HP out of it i think every and anything that could be done has been done to it.

[dagus]

Holy shit. I need tissues now.

Jesus . I have seen lots of pics but it is great to hear the chicken run. How do you think the M4 megaphone like you have on the 675 would compare on a hawk?

[surferdude]

OOF!!!

[Crash]

Hells Bells... nothing sounds like a good Hawk.

[bill-ns]

Hi Buck- (and everybody else!)

No, it isn't a stroker, just a regular 700. Somebody else was posting about a stroker Hawk? There were a few billet stroker cranks made but I don't know where they all ended up.

In response the rest of the comments/Q's... not sure what that M4 mega would sound like. Probably not quite as loud. I'll try it on some Hawk one of these days.

89rwhp, yes. It has a seriously nice set of cylinder heads parked on top that were, I believe, originally done by Jeff Reel. They came off the DuHawki, something you old-timers will remember. I changed a few things in the heads but didn't fiddle with them too much, no need. More details here:

Right now the bike is "detuned" a bit, did a few track days this past summer and didn't want to blow it up. With flywheel, charging system and plain race fuel instead of the rocket fuel, and a few rpm's lopped off the top, it is down in the mid-80's.

OK, gotta run, VP 4.2 fumes await me in the dyno room.
