back in the 80's some of you may remember this tv series of a guy on a black bike with super duper powers! :lol
Street Hawk << click here
this is what really made me want to get a bike:
Street Hawk Hyperthrust << click here
i always wanted to know what would happen if he was going that fast and somebody cut him off!

I blame my brother and so do my parents. He bought home a Triumph 750, I was 5 at the time and had a mini bike but that was the influence for road bikes for me. Sad, very sad:lol

I forgot all about that show. Damn I enjoyed it. What time frame was that show regularly on TV?

I wish I could find a bike that fast and that handled that go with that little input/effort. I guess if I could I would be racing WSBK.
