truckinduc,
this thread is much better than tv, and WAY better than hollywood movies.
your skills are simply amazing, particularly when considering your age. if you keep impressing me so much i'm gonna have to ask you for id to prove you're only 19!(20 now?)
love the bed liner spray for the chassis. great choice. i still remember seeing it on a hardley in daytona years ago. i will use it someday on body work or on a frame. nicely done.

This is the thread I keep coming back to because you're getting it done! The mock up looks great but I would like to see a pic of the lights from the front to see what the vertical setup looks like. No worries though if you don't, just keep the other pics coming!
Oh yeah I like the reinforcement to the cases on the sides. It looks like it could handle a spill.

opinion, i'm blown away so far.
too many likes to list but i have to mention your choice of bed liner for the frame again. it's awesome.
you did say white for body work? that wouldn't be my choice but you definitely know what you're doing so i'll wait and see how it looks. i bet you'll make it work nicely.
one thing i've been into lately is one old school round headlight. simple, classic.

Well your other option for headlights (side by side) would give it a kind of Speed Triple look, only without the huge bulbs.. Without seeing it, I don't know if what you have or that would look better.
But over all it looks great!

This is an amazing project and the speed that you are going in incredible. I look forward to logging on everyday to see what you've gotten done. I can't wait to see the finished product, would you mind going a little faster please. I agree, I think a pearl white with carbon accessories would look great!

I like the stacked light. If I was to do a Naked Superhawk. I too would paint/sprayliner the frame swingarm and subframe,Front mount Rad, upright bars, Upsidedown forks, highmount exhaust. I have always had a love for flatblack on black with carbonfiber trim here and there. Basicly make it look like an Monster S4R.

as has been said, amazing. And you make such fast progress, I think you have a team of elves or oompa loompas working for you. You should go on that chopper build show they used to have - build it in 30 days and you got to keep the thing. You would have blown it away.
I like the bike. Not sure about the headlight/damper yet - but that is just style preference - and I'm not sure what overall look you are going for.
Really impressive stuff though.

First things first...HAPPT BIRTHDAY TO YOU...
Ok , read all the thread and loving it, I noticed you started this bike about a year ago so well done in the patients department.
In your ms paint picture the rear looks tooo high for me, and I would have a rear somewhere near a gsxr 6 k6, I think it would compliment the lovely clean rear you have created. Pearl white is absolutely perfect but have you thought about pinstripes or decals to break up the lines,
Apart from that the bike looks superb and your work is amazing.
Anyhoo keep up the good work and good luck .
PS the cct's you made have made a lot of controversy over here in the UK,
Would you post to the UK??

I'm not a fan of "naked" projector beam lights, I much prefer something like the Speed Triple setup or a traditional single light, which looks less cluttered to me...I also feel that the tail section would look better with less gap between it and the rear wheel, in other words, not so much of an upward angle...
That said, I really dig the bike and commend you for your imagination and your ability to bring your ideas to fruition...
