I got my new fender today so I went and installed it. A bit of a PITA but worth it. The only thing I could not get to work was the lock would not fit into the new location as the hole was too big and the plastic was not thick enough. I am going to take it to a shop to get them to fabricate it. Anyway here is the video....per CCs request.

It sounds like your camera mic is maxed out, maybe get further away or something.

I'll get one of mine as soon as my new tire is on. I should be picking it up from the shop today.

Sounds beautiful btw.

Nice, an RC51? I love my SV650. Fun, cheap, great gas mileage, and sounds nice through a can. It's not quite as nice sounding as a super hawk or RC51 but still sounds good.

Believe it or not, the pistons in these V-twins are the same size as in your Corvette!

I remember riding my buddy's with the stock exhaust, but baffles removed. I used to get people talking to me at stoplights all the time. I don't know what they were saying, but they looked envious.

I never got so much attention on any other bike. A lot of fun, and the sound was the best part.

I always thought it sounded like a pissed off 350 Chevy.

I was finding these bike all over craigslist for great deals until about a week ago... FAHK!

The superhawks are a bit unknown and dirt cheap for what you get. I've seen some decent ones out in the midwest go for $3500.

RC51, you might have to pry the owner's cold dead fingers off it to get one.
