Bags, Toolbox on a hawk?
Anyone mounted any? The factory cargo platform is pretty much worthless. I have an old camera bag mounted there right now with a few things in it. Would like a better rack like the Storm has. Pretty likely i'll have to build one i suppose?

I'm expecting to have to bolt a rack or plate to the stock platform.

TXDSRIDER - How is that seat cover? It looks extremely comfortable. I would like to put one of those under the seat skin cover. I'm trying to compile all info Hawk related and your bags and bike look good! If you would please post a link to the bags and the seat cover in this thread for me -> http://www.chinariders.net/showthread.php?t=15942

To me they are the perfect size the saddle bags can hold a gallon of milk each almost two I've also put loves of French bread in them. And the tail bag can also fit a gallon of milk on it's side plus a little more. And it's compact enough I can still lane split with them not sticking out any further from my legs.

No its not turbo it was originally a 5sfe car. I bought it because it's a hard top that is rare it's also a no power steering and no abs car so it is the lightest mr2 made a little over 2200 lbs. It has a 3vzfe v6 out of a jdm camry. the 3sgte is high maintenance and cost a lot more than the v6 and stock they make the same power with less torque from the turbo and no lag from the v6, and I the v6 runs 87 octane and averages 26 mpg. I had a mkiv supra turbo for about 5 years that spent half it's life in the shop getting modified. so when I got the mr2 I wanted something reliable with decent power and that I wouldn't want to keep going bigger turbo and more power. It has bolt ons and head work and makes about 240 hp to the wheels. I love turbo cars but it made more sense to do the v6 besides my supra made 880 hp and was always geting me in trouble with the police so I wanted something more practical for street use and not another money pit and this set up is perfect for that.

Don't take a firearm!! As much as you could use one, you'd be in big trouble down there
