I like what you plan doing with it. I still have the round headlight on my Amazon wish list but never pulled the trigger on it. I have too many other projects going on i need to finish up. That fender should bolt right up.
I have been debating ridding myself of the Hawk for a couple of years. To be honest, if my life plans were different I probably would just sell it as I still have my eyes on an MT03. However, since my new job is so close I would feel bad using the mt03 to commute, but I don't mind abusing the Hawk much lol. Plus. Being hopped up a bit and air cooled, getting the oil up to temp doesn't take long.

The Hawk is just a cheap alternative solution to buying a 150-200cc scooter, which would get better mileage, but also cost me a lot more. My current plans might cost me 200 bucks. Maybe 3 if I do the exhaust thing.

The Hawk is also big enough for me and comfy, two important known quantities.

I may make one othet change and install a trunk to my csc rack and ditch the soft bag. That is undecided at this point.
