Welcome to here! Don't rule out the Lifan X-Pect 200 as it is also fuel-injected and Lifan has a slightly better reputation overall in the grand scheme of things in the Chinese bike world. There are those who will argue with me, but Lifan has been around since, well, the beginning of this forum, and was in fact instrumental in this site coming to being back in 2006. No, the bike involved was not fuel-injected back then, but the engine was pretty much the same venerable 200 that is seen in the X-Pect. Watch some videos on YouTube about the X-Pect and research the posts. BUT, all that being said, the Hawk DLX is proving itself as well (both the DLX and X-Pect are fairly new). The carbed Hawk has been around several years and members here have sorted that bike out 100 ways to mars in the past few years. But, prices being about equal, the advantage of the DLX is the dual-disc brakes and upside-down forks among other things.
