Wow, that pod filter just barely fits in there.

looking at the rear shock lower mount. wonder how long that will last? theres a lot of leverage on just welds unless i just cant see enough of it.

Just noticed the Magician rear shock has pre-load adjustment. I wish the Hawk would of came with one.

The bike turned out amazing! I love the color choice.
That exhaust is actually decently quiet sounding, at least in the video. Sounds like it has a couple of internal baffles.

yes the exhaust is not too loud. I was afraid it may have been loud. For me it's just perfect, also hard to tell in the video but in person it sounds great. Seems well made too. |

To be honest I’ve never looked at a picture of a magician and liked it, but that bike there is bad ass. Nice work.

Great job on the colors. A couple of questions; did you paint the tank, and if so, what did you use? Is the tank plastic? And finally, what other color did you use? It looks like some sort of bronze. Again, the whole bike looks great. Too bad the motor isn't based on a Yamaha. You could have replaced the side covers to complete the look.
