Flypig Hawk 250 Fuel Petcock

This one bolts right up and has a larger inner diameter than the OEM Hawk petcock. I could tell a little difference in torque with the slight increase in fuel flow:...

When you watch the assembly video for the Paladin (and pretty much any XPro/Zumaav bike), you can see why some of the Zumaav bikes come to us with cross-threaded bolts. In the video, they rarely...

Wow..XPro is upping their game!

I have checked out the specs on this bike and I’m thoroughly impressed. If the specs are even close, power-wise, it would be difficult to justify the purchase of a CRF300L/Rally or a KLX300. The...

Indeed I did swap it into a carbed Hawk. 6 speed, counterbalanced, 274cc (says 300cc, but list most bikes, it's not an actual 300cc). Either way, it's about 24-25 HP and with that 6th gear, chugs on...

Though I’m running the 6 speed version of this engine in my Hawk, I went with 13/40 sprockets and it still has plenty of grunt for off-road use. However, if I was primarily going to ride this bike...

Yep, the stock suspension, especially the rear shock stinks for serious off road riding. The rest of the bike is pretty dang good quality for the $, but yep, though I like Zuma products, they have...

I put the 2 valve version of that engine in my Hawk (PR300, counterbalanced, 6 speed). It runs like a champ and outperforms most Honda CRF300Ls I’ve seen. I’ve got over 5,000 miles on it now with...

My Hawk is very reliable, but it's not really a Hawk anymore since I've changed about every part on it, and have significantly modified the frame to make it stronger/stiffer. My Hawk was mostly stock...

Honda vs. Chonda?

I have 2 Chondas and 2 Japanese bikes. My 2019 carbureted Hawk 250 has been a champ for the last 17,000 miles, but I’ve replaced nearly every major part on it such that the only thing that’s really...

Nice work MumenRider! That's gonna be a ripper! I'm thinking about doing the same with my DLX sometime in the next year. Have you been able to source a skid plate yet for the ZS190? Maybe something...

I ran a 17/40 sprocket set-up on the Hawk for about 4 years after porting and polishing the head of my CG250 engine and loved it. I could comfortably run 65-70 mph all day long on my local highways...

I've essentially made all the same mods that you have and love the outcome. You are absolutely right though, the seat is atrocious. I'm thinking of purchasing some 2 cm memory foam to put under the...

I have the Storm DLX150 and love it, but I wanted a lightweight micro dual sport and not a 250 (I already have a 250). In many states, as long as your MCO says "motorcycle", you can get it registered...

By the way, the owner's manual that came with your DLX150 is pretty helpful overall. It states to set the valves both at .004.

I don’t have a Go-Pro or similar technology, so it’s not going to happen. Sorry.

This can be normal with carbs, especially those without accelerator pumps and are a “round slide” type of carb, which the Nibbi PE28 is. You may be able to remedy this with going up one size on your...
