The auction if I remember correctly the second time didn't have a reserve and started low. Now all of a sudden it has a reserve. Can't believe with 2 days to go it's at $4,150.

At least when he states "pretty bike" it's probably the only thing stated with any actual truth. .............lm

I wonder if it runs? And if it does, for how long?

Did you see the wiring harness coming up from the engine by the down tube? Scary...

I couldn't stand it any longer, I had to email the fella:

"Hi! Your Hawk is a striking bike with beautiful paint and chrome, but I couldn't help but notice some irregularities. The fork sliders are on the wrong sides; the headlight switch is backwards; seats on the red Hawks were black (there were never any original red seats), as were the center stands; the shocks aren't original; fenders were Cloud Silver and not chrome in 1966; no flatbars were installed in 1966; the taillight bracket should be black; the boot over the wiring harness coming from the engine (near the frame downtube) is missing; and what are those fork seal covers - they're not correct. The bike is pretty, no doubt, but it's not a "restoration", but a "resto-mod". How do I know? I've owned a Superhawk since 1971. To avoid problems, you might want to amend your description to state that it's a resto-mod. Good luck on the sale! ~~ Sara"

I wonder if he'll tell ME to eff off? :)

Looks like he suckered somebody in with a buy-it-now of $4900. Wow.
