|
Comments:
Ready to start modifications; suspension first, then exhaust and carbs. Good handling, overall very decent all round and capable bike. Does need more power for its size and a larger gas tank. Both easy to remedy not necessarily inexpensive for the larger tank. I have the original chain and sprockets since I lub the chain every 100-200 miles.

| Modifications: The Hawk is all stock down to the factory emmission decals, after attending ECHR III I would love to modify the Hawk, but I have decidede to leave it as Honda intended...if only I could find another Hawk..... | |||
| Problems: We stored the Hawk from '93 to '98 when I got it out I had to epoxy the tank, clean out the carbs etc...my stupidity in not storing it properly. When I took it out of storage it only had 3775 miles! Other than that its been perfect (even though i'm 6'6" a little cramped!) | |||

If anyone knows of any get togethers for Feb 2000, please let me know. (I did get to ride an Aprilia "racing 46" scooter in Macedonia.)If anybody wants feel free to e-mail me about anything.

| For Sale: I may be interested in purchasing a fixer upper in Feb 2000, upon my return from lovely Kosovo!If anyone has a "ugly" good running Hawk let me know. | |||

Comments:
I was impressed with the Hawk when I first saw one at Elkhart Lake in '88. I also ride a Velocette Thruxton. The two fit together well. I will give the right leg a rest and ride the Hawk when my knee gives out. Mountain roads should be awesome.

Comments:
A reviewer of this bike called it a high-tech theater, which to some extent it still is (e.g. single-sided swing-arm, water-cooled engine, twin-spar frame, etc.) It also has slim good looks, especially from the rear, and it is considered by some experts to be a 'collectible.' But it's showing its age. I recently took a test ride on a SuperHawk (VTR1000F) and the difference in handling and performance was astonishing. The NT650 has served me faithfully for ten years, but I think I'm ready for a 1000cc muscle bike.
| |||
| For Sale: My Hawk 1988 NT650GT is for sale. It has 60,000 miles on the odometer and needs some work, mainly cosmetic: new seat, paint job on tank, new front fender. Also needs new switch assemblies on both handle-bars and key-lock. Mechanically, the engine, drive train and running chassis are in excellent condition. Prefer to sell to Hawk enthusiast who understands the value of this machine. | |||

Comments:
I have a 750 Ducati, a bizarre Beemer, but this the "newest" bike I've owned. By gads, everythhing works. A little buzzy and higher center of gravity feeling than my old faithful '78 BMW, but it's light, nimble, has a serious fun factor, and sounds great with the SuperTrapp. Some buzz through the bars and the seat is uncomfortable. I'm look for a mini-fairing. Heard Lockhart makes one. What else is out there?

This 10 yr old pocket rocket replaces my 97 Suzuki Bandit 1200, a great bike but the Hawk is more useable and MORE FUN everyday, almost as much fun as my 67 Bultaco Metralla (and a heck of alot more usesful).
