The transformation begins...

This picture was taken on December 17, 2011

Last year in December, I pulled out my beloved Hawkster from the depths of the forbidden backyard blues. It has been sitting there well over two and a half years. After minutes of starring at it in its decrepit form, I decided to revive her with some love. This will take me on a journey, which I'm hoping it will not last as long as it was sitting. Follow me on my little venture of restoring my Hawkster to a new glory I can enjoy. I'll be posting pictures of my progress to show everyone the slow transformation taking place. And I mean slow... since the only time I have available is when I'm not busy with school.

It took me 5 hours to dismantle the bike to a pile of parts.
