Re: 88 Hawk track/race bike for sale
Your welcome Alyssa, very glad your the new owner, i'm sure you will enjoy it and i doubt you will need to change anything, the rear spring could be lighter but peter did a set up for Jane both front and rear and she said it was much better.
Congratulations and enjoy.

Jane's is in fantastic shape, and mostly stock so I can at least follow the manual instead of using deductive guesses, tea leaves, augury etc. And it's… so… pretty :D
Only possible snag is seeing how it fits. Should be fine since Jane and I are around the same size, but I'll have to try it out at the track. I also did get kind of attached to mine. But I know my limitations…
So another (less pretty, but faster) Hawk will most likely be up for sale after the next BoMo day, once I've cleaned it up and replaced a few things.
edit: Thank you, Jane & Freddy :)

Re: 88 Hawk track/race bike for sale
watch out, Degsy has been known to put a bike down so that he has to buy it :beerbang:
Re: 88 Hawk track/race bike for sale
Very clean Hawk. Nicely done.
The 06/07 front end looks great.
Re: 88 Hawk track/race bike for sale

its a good chunk of money but looks like a sweet bike http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...#ht_845wt_1167
let me know if you need someone to go check it out, I have a buddy out there who would be more than willing to go take a look
Re: 88 Hawk track/race bike for sale
The other Hawk (jcbell's) is sold, sorry guys. Somewhere along the line "I'll be thinking about selling it" morphed into "she's selling it" but I'm not complaining at all, I think it turned out well. It is staying in the BoMo family :rockon:
Re: 88 Hawk track/race bike for sale
Looking forward to being passed by this bike on my 600. :/

I don't know if you have experience with a GP bike, but playing mechanic on a 125 is actually fun! The frequent maintenance schedule make it seem like more work than a street bike, but the bike is designed to quickly be worked on at the track so maintenance is quick and with little hassle. If you do choose an RS125, I would be happy to help you and share my bike specific knowledge.
At a track day earlier this season, Jane sat on my 125 and the bike fits her perfectly! If the opportunity pops up before a replacement is bought, she's welcome to take mine out at a track day session or 2 to make sure she's comfortable with it on the track.

Thank you for the offer for Jane, i'm sure she will take you up on it, if your at the next BOMO TD stop by.
Jane is still thinking Two stroke and may have something very neat lined up for a winter project, she will be showing up at the next BOMO day with a very nice/very fast bike to try and i hope she likes it.

Can't wait to hear more about this!
Re: 88 Hawk track/race bike for sale
CBR 600RR, VERY well set up, she will likely love it or hate it, we will see, she does have a plan for a winter build on a two stroke so if she does'nt like this, it will be for sale :( and she will be back on a two stroke.
