The only plus a bike offers as far as I'm concerned is gas mileage which I don't think is worth the risk. I think Trust summed it up beautifully with his first hand account above and yeah.......keep the 'Hawk!!!!
Oh yeah but if you REALLY want a bike then save up for one and have both
when you think of it, gas mileage wouldnt really matter, you get a 5 gallon tank in wich most bikes run the premium **** like the LS1s, anyway, a 5 gallon tank will get basically the same mileage to the tank as the hawk which is around 300mi city, unless all your looking at is how much you pay at the pump each time you fill up it wont matter.

I had an opprotunity to buy a Hawk, but I didn't like the spoiler and couldent understand why it was more expensive than the ws.6. I decided to be cheap and buy the ws.6. Now I deserve to kick myself in the nads for being cheap. The rarity and exclusivity is pricless, perhaps to me more so than you, but if you hold on to that sucker it should be worth some coin later. Besides, I see ram airs all the time, hardly ever a Hawk. Just save some money for a bike, its about to get cold anyways. A nice heater is in order for that, don't gold-wings have those lol.
