For sale is an ’89 HawkGT. This bike is perfect for the beginner track rider. The bike has been very well maintained and since I have owned it I have only used Castrol Superbike full synthetic oil. AF-1 did a great job on the tuning and the power is very linear. Within the last 4 track days maintenance includes new clutch, sparkplugs, valve cover gaskets, thermostat, coolant hoses and valve adjustment. The tires have 2 track days on them and are in excellent condition.

The title is clean and in my name. I had the bike registered and fully street legal before I changed it to a full track setup. To return the bike to street trim you would have to add rear signal lights, reconnect the front signals (the leads are still present) and hook up the rear brake light. With the addition of the rearsets I know you need an adapter for the brake light from Woodcraft; having never reconnected the light I don’t know how well the adapter works and what is involved in its installation. I’m not sure if TX law requires a speedometer but the speedo sensor is removed (tach and temp gauge work fine). Last consideration for street trim is the switch I installed in line to the ignition allowing the bike to start without the key. Having lost the key and finding it the day after I bypassed the ignition, you may have to remove the switch.

There are 2 items which would need maintenance: the steering damper needs to be rebuilt and one fork seal needs replacement.

Mods:
F2 Front end – Previously worked on by LE, since then I added Racetech .95kg springs, 15wt oil and cartridge emulators
Hi-Perform Chain roller
Hi-Perform frame sliders
AFAM front and rear sprockets (+2 in rear)
AFAM chain
EBC clutch and springs
Uni-pod air filters
Dynojet roller shifter detent
Dynojet +4 ignition advancer
Dynojet jetkit
Dyno tuned by AF-1
Woodcraft Clipons
Woodcraft rearsets
Michelin Pilot power tires
Fox 3-way rear shock
Stainless steel front brake lines
Supertrapp Full exhaust
