916, which had, once again, put twin cylinder Sports Bikes in
demand. The Super Hawks 100 horsepower engine, is meaty and
muscular; with a four valves per cylinder, valve train, chain
driven camshafts, and 180degree reversed heads. Without doubt,
the Honda Super Hawk Motorcycle is a serious Sports Bike,
available in the ‘real world’.

Super Bikes, ‘racing bred’ components. Light weight, powerful,
with a sharp response. An aluminum swing arm connects the
engine directly; to the twin spar, semi pivot-less, aluminum

for traditional pivot plates is eliminated. The Super Hawk

of Honda’s production motorcycles. The Super Hawk also has
41mm, adjustable, spring pre-load front forks, with Hondas
Multi Action System (HMAS). On the back, HMAS single shocks,
with 4.9inch travel, and spring preload and rebound damping

World Championship first time out. From 2001, a few
modifications were made. Fuel tank capacity was increased to
4.2gallons, including a 0.7-gallon reserve. To ensure there’s
plenty of gas available, to keep that 996cc engine fed, even
on the longer haul. The ergonomics of the bike were also
improved, to offer a better, all day, riding position. Honda’s
exclusive security system, the HISS immobilizer, also became a
standard feature.
The Honda Super Hawk Motorcycle has cast aluminum, triple
spoke wheels, with wide profile 17inch radials on the front
and back. The Honda Super Hawk’s stopping power is provided by
