Not super worried about it either way. The Hawk is really my workhorse for banging around town and running errands. I don't care if it gets tipped over or scratched or such. On the one hand, I stay on top of all the maintenance, but on the other hand, it's really nice to have what effectively amounts to a disposable bike in the event something goes wrong. In related news, the kickstarter hits the right side footpeg everytime I kick it over. That's resulted in a pretty substantial amount of paint damage and dings on both the kickstarter and the back of the footpeg. Also, the right passenger footpeg broke the welds. I'm just going to get a longer but smaller bolt and a set of washers and just sandwich the existing threaded barrel to the anchor point. Problem solved.
