Yes a little tight. I could of used an extension, a lot of room further back. But I'm a firm believer in as few parts as possible.

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.

Not gonna say I'm done, because it's never done lol. Maybe a few things to do but pretty much wrapped up for now. Once I get a chance to ride it around the block I will change the oil.

Put up a quick video of start up.

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.

Thanks Dan,
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.

Fantastic job! That’s by far the best Magician I’ve seen

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.

Wow, I don't care for the stock magician at all, but that thing looks incredible! Sounds good too.

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.

Thanks Weld and everyone. I did not expect it to sound so good, sounds like it has authority in person.
