[Republic]

Occasionally I'd like to share something that happened with my Hawk but I don't want to start a whole new thread for it, so maybe we could use this one?

Enough of us have Hawks we could keep this going.

I needed to run to town yesterday but I don't have any storage on my bike yet. Being a good Okie I've just bought a case of Blue and Gold sausage, so I strapped it to the bike and off I went.

I actually got my first compliment of the bike, a guy walking out of the store* said "Boy, that sure is a nice looking bike." I wasn't expecting that at all. I need to get the 'Made in China' stigma out of my own head I guess. It IS a nice looking bike, and has been more reliable all ready than my old Royal Enfield.


*Now...I must give a caveat for that compliment. The store was the Dollar Star and the guy didn't have any teeth...but I'll take the compliment!
