@ civicdrivr... Also love the Hawk GT... really cool bike that for some reason never took off in sales. Unfortunate. It was a good bike. Same thing with my '04 599... A good bike that never moved off the sales floor. People on this side of the ocean don't seem to like naked bikes.

I had the first one in North America:
Love the '04 599. I had it's bigger brother the '05 919/Hornet. Sold it to help with the funds for the FR-S. I bought it used in 2010 with 400 miles on it, and sold it this year in May for what I paid for it. I do miss it, but will probably replace it with a Goldwing in the Spring as MamaHawk wants something she can ride with me.

Only problem I had with the 919 was it needed more pullback. it was a little long a reach for my short frame.
