Re: [ST] Santa Ana, CA?



Yep the Hawk listers are very generous with bikes, parts, advice, and some nonsense thrown in for good measure.  Much like youse guys and gals.

I think Jermey would have been sold a lot earlier on a Sprint but he waited a little too long.  I had ridden mine down to GA two years in a row for a rally we were both at but he waited till year 3 before asking to give it a whirl.  Well wouldn't you know it, that was the year I brought my Hawk so he had to settle for trying a friend's S3.  I don't think Jeremy is too bashful about asking anymore!
