I meant the gasket for the connection right in the middle of the exhaust. The one that's held together with that shiny clamp ( sanitary clamp). I had seen other post in the past were people a ask...

I looked it over really good yesterday, and the only damage I saw was the ball end of the front brake lever has a little bit ground off. I looked at the video again, and it's visible in the video as...

When I put the 4.60x18" Dunlop D605 on my Hawk, it geared me down just a hair. I had recently went from a 16 to a 17 tooth front sprocket, and the difference in the tire is noticable, but I can...

Like Dan said, it's going to be hard to find a bike that light in a Chinese Dual Sport. Even in the Japanese bikes, often the weight reduction comes at the expenses of an electric starter. The 6th...

This is the same creek ( Steer Lick) from the other direction. I was on the Hawk. The water was higher , so I didn't try to take the creek any further than necessary, which is what I should have...

KPX went for an unexpected dip in the creek, and so did I.

I went to mow my place out in the county, and decided to take a " long cut" home. I hit a rock so slick that I don't think any kind of tire would have made a difference. I normally wear boots, but...

I bought the black Nibbi for my TBR7 last year , because I had developed a miss, that I think was either mud up on the connection terminal of the stock coil, or a bad ground. I had it fixed, and...

Nibbi yellow coil ???

My Hawk has pretty close to 4,000 miles on it now, and has been a great bike. I have the motor modded , and it makes very noticeably more power than it did stock. I am pleased with it, and other...

The only reason that I run a 46 tooth sprocket is because I already had 2 , one from my old Brozz , and one that was evidently stock with the TBR7, that I bought slightly used. I tried the 17 tooth...

You can adjust more preload into the rear, but the front will need done with spacers, which I personally would like to do on mine, but from what I have seen if the guy taking the Hawk DLX shocks...

There's a chance that your tank is leaking around the sending unit gasket. It's worth checking anyhow. I guess the unit itself could leak as well, like around the wires. I know that some people...
