holding to the klingon family code of Honour . . . .




as russell has sagely noted, the Burden of Shame on the House monT is great, with my riding around, fat, slow, and now wearing those shoes pictured below. an atlas-scale burden for young nicky to bear, indeed. fortuitously, here we see he is more than up to task. rolling to the local skatespots on a custom painted arai-adamo helmet themed hawk GT. for those of a non-motorsickle persuation . . . . this bike, 15 years ahead of it's time when it came out, is the second coolest motorcycle to ever come out of nippon ( the RC30 beeing cooler, naturally ). but, note how the lad still is able to rock that mofo like amadeaus.

with nicky holding up his end of deal like that, i could wear pink bunny slippers when i ride and he would STILL make up for it.

That is cool. Totin' that board with ease.

Cool paint on an even cooler bike. Hawk GTs were definitely under-appreciated, but made their influence felt in the "naked bike" scene of a few years back (and still out there today).

Some racer types (of the horsepowered variety) loved having those as a little street bike they could beat on without getting arrested.

thanx dave - don't forget: 1st aluminum twin-spar frame on a nipponese bike to market ( now the standard of every sportbike ), and the 1st single-side swingarm, as well ( copied for it's coolness by the euro's much later ). :)
