Been driving for 20 years now, got my motorcycle endorsement a year after I got my driver's license. I've got as many, if not more, miles on 2 wheels, as I do on 4 wheels. I've been involved in 4...

Added another 60 miles to the meter yesterday. Had some fun, and the Hawk is dialed in now and running great! So glad that wasn't a major issue! Unfortunately weather is supposed to turn back cold...

Ok... Update after working 3 hours on her this morning.

Pulled chain and rear wheel off. Checked the snap ring and studs, both seemed tight and in their place. I decided to pull everything...

OK. So got home from work and tried the following:

Tightened chain tension to where it almost had no play, no change.
Pulled chain off, removed a couple links from the original chain,...

Yep, did this last night. Oil looked good (only had 100 miles on it), no metal bits to be found. Again, for S&G's I'm going to put the old chain back on it when I get home. I've been studying that...

I thought it's supposed to be 1 1/2" of play when it's in the air? That's what I've got it set to. Also it doesn't matter either way, I tried it with the chain tight (no play) and it's doing the...

It actually does it in all gears, low speed. Once you give it some throttle it goes away. I'm leaning towards chain now. I've still got the original chain, I'll resize it and throw it on there later...

Hawk Clunking, Skipping - Low Speed Take Off

Ok, so I'm gonna try to explain this the best I can. When I let the clutch out slowly when I'm taking off from a stop, there's a clunking noise that comes from the front sprocket area. You can also...

I love this bike! Haven't ran into too many issues yet, and I've put right at 150 miles on her! Haven't swapped sprockets yet, and haven't changed the tires, but that's about all I haven't done. ...

Honestly, I would have gotten one also, but emails weren't returned, and phone calls weren't answered. I got impatient and went with the Hawk. That orange one though had my name all over it!

OK... So update time.

Taxes fixed, done whatever.... I ended up owing a little more $$. No biggie. I was still struggling with this decision on what bike I wanted to add to my garage. I...

Ok, well this thread took a turn I wasn't expecting. I was all set on the Hawk, but now I'm eyeing that BMS CRP, to the point I've pretty much decided on it.

That said and now for something off...

Well crap... I had completely taken the BMS CRP250 out of the running based on the 28" seat height I had seen it advertised at. I guess the only deterrent would be the Hawk has a much larger...

culcune, thanks for the additional bikes. I have pretty much looked at all of them. A big thing I look at is seat height due to how tall I am. I'm 6'5", and find I tend to be more comfortable on...

Budget is up to $2,000. Period. No going over. Went back and forth with that for the last few months, and to me there's just not enough difference between the Hawk and TT250 to warrant the $1,000...

Alrighty - Time to get me a hawk - Anything else I should look at?

OK, so after wheeling and dealing with Uncle Sam, I actually owe quite a bit less than I was expecting this year for my taxes, so that's kinda like a refund for me! Decided I want to add a Hawk to...
