superhawk chrome fenders

Post by 305nutt » Fri Jul 15, 2011 5:50 pm

did they ever make a superhawk with chrome fenders? I bought a 65 last week and the rear fender is chrome, and the chrome job looks factory. Any info would be great! thanks nutt

Yes HONDA did issue the last of the production with chrome fenders.
Ya can tell the OEM as the tail light bracket had 3 mounting holes rather than 2. ..............lm

Thanks LM. I'll check the mounting holes just for curiosity. I knew the later scramblers had chrome fenders, but never seen a superhawk with chrome. Thanks for the info!!

Here's one of the last Superhawks, and originally from the US.
