Yes, the Templar is a great machine. Actually all the bikes mentioned here are a great bang for your buck. My .02 is this. The Hawk has the proven, reliable TANK for an engine. Simple, easy to work on, and will go and go. The Bruzz has that same engine but more parts are added (counter balance shaft), but there are reports of even the counter balance motor lasting more miles that most would ever ride one. Brozz having better suspension? Depends how you look at it. The forks on the Hawk are stupid simple to maintain, and even tune to your weight and riding style. The only gripe I have about the suspention on any of the CG ( push rod) bikes, is the rear shock is connected directly to the front of the swing arm. Whereas the Templar, KPX, etc have a linked rear suspension, which is SO dang sweet. My KPX has a better suspension than my brand new Royal Enfield Himalayan. And the Himmy cost TWICE as much as the KPX. Anyway I'll stop rambling.
