Hey there. I just picked up a Hawk Project and luckily I found this forum. Just searching has already been a great help.
Here's my Hawk:
It's an 88 with 3.5k on the clock. The original owner parked it after a close call about 10 years ago. Unfortunately he didn't think about parking it first. It still runs though.
My biggest need is a tank. We looked at repairing this one but it's probably too far gone. I saw MR Cycle had a NOS for $328, but if I spend that much I might as well do the mod to the larger one. Also have a hole in the fender, so if anyone has stock body work that's taking up room just let me know. I'll post in the buy/sell shortly.
Otherwise, the bike is in great shape considering. I've got the JD carb package and the fork seals/dust covers on the way. That rusty chain cleaned up pretty good. Here's a few hours later:
Again, thanks for all the help you've already given me. I'll be sure to update!
