Topic: Where can I find the USA VTR Firestorm / Super Hawk forum?

[lordmoonpie]

I think you guys call the Honda VTR1000 Firestorm a Super Hawk over your side of the pond but do any of you know where I can find a forum in the USA for this bike? I've had a quick search and not brought up anything really useful so if anyone knows or is a member there I'd sure appreciate a pointer...
Thanks

Your very welcome.

It's strange the number of times names get reused or changed for different models in the States.
In the UK, the VTR Superhawk is called the Firestorm and its upmarket brother the SP1, (RC51 in the States).
Going back to the early 60s, the 305cc CB77 was called the Dream Super Sport, in the States it was called, you've guessed it...the Superhawk.
Did you check out the forum that bigjoshl posted Simon?

Sam.

Sam, Yes I did and it's spot on. Basically I'm gearing up to sell my Moriwaki VTR1000 Superbike. It's one of only two remaining full stage 3 Factory Moriwaki superbikes so is a very rare bird indeed. The other I've been told is in Moriwaki's own museum in Japan! So, with it being the poster bike for VTR owners I thougt I'd offer it up in the appropriate forum so it has a chance to go to someone who appreciates it for what it is...a monster!

Hi, I'm very interested in your bike!!!

You sell the complete bike or parts of it?

Can i ask some pics and info at flavio.folli AT alice.it?

Thanks!!!!!

[lordmoonpie]

Flavio, thanks but sadly it's already sold. With it being such a rare and special bike I didn't think it would be long before it sold. However, if you have a VTR already, I do have a lot of brand new Moriwaki carbon fibre bodywork that I might be prepared to sell? Let me know....

[Rama53]

Yes, I'm interested expecially in racing parts.... please send to me a list of your parts! 

[lordmoonpie]

Flavio - I have emailed you. Talk soon
