I can appreciate the work of tracking down an EFI conversion and it’s great to upgrade any parts on the Hawk. But how reliable is a more complicated gray market system at what benefit over a carb. We don’t get emissions checked. Maybe a few more miles per tank. The carb is foolproof super simple to repair and a replacement is sub $20. I’ve seen the carb models of China bikes on back order this summer and I’d assume it’s cause the pending EFI release. If I had a choice I’d go carb. Even if this was a Japanese bike. It’s like trying to make ice cubes more complicated.

Keep it simple stupid and I’ll get home when I’m over 10 miles off pavement roads.
