Picked this little guy up today for the tiddy sum of $700 big ones.
Hawk GT with CBR600 forks. Running lean but running. Has some rash, but not bad. New tires, chain, clutch. It is rough around the edges but I am stoked! 6661 miles!

That thing will run weird for the next mile. Every bike I've ever seen runs crappy any time the odo is at 666. Every time.
I still have the triumph. It is slowly coming back together. However, I was told to sell it since I got this. ALSO, I found the keys to hard bags so I can finally sell those!
NT647 for $700 is a steal any day! I miss mine a lot.
If you want a rear suspension to match your upgraded forks, a CBR900RR rear shock can be swapped in with very little effort. IIRC, the lower mount is an exact match, and the upper mount requires a little bit of grinding and drilling out the mounting hole 1mm larger. Some heavy duty wire ties will secure the remote reservoir to the subframe. In the end it will look like it was meant to be there. It will also raise the rear ride height about 3/4 of an inch, and subsequently decrease the steering rake a wee bit.
Let me know what you're selling. I may be buying. I'd like a bike. Nothing too muscley.
That looks like a pretty sweet ride, though. I'm jelly. Need more pics.
Well the only one that I have to sell is a 2001 Triumph ST 955i that is currently in pieces. I think that might be more bike than you want with more work than its worth to fix.
In reply to singleslammer:
Yea, the current equivelant(albeit evolved) to the ST 955i today would be the zx14 concourse.
