I knew I'd ruffle a few feathers with that comment. My fat rear end wouldn't let my 550 get to 120 (255 lbs) but the X doesn't seem to have much of an issue with that. Also, the X allows me to stretch out and be more comfortable than the Nighthawk (even with highway bars/pegs.) Big guy = big bike.
And yeah, the exhaust on it is kinda weird. I have a Supertrapp muffler on the way as we speak. And I'm not racist towards Nighthawks. I still own one, come on! :-D -Kyle KK On Thu, Jun 4, 2009 at 4:42 PM, Creative Residential Designs < [email protected]> wrote: > That's it! I'm dropping iron pills in my Hawk's tank.
