Hawk 250cc, assembly instructions?
I just got my hawk 250cc from the freight forwarder company. However, i noticed that the assembly instructions are missing. Could somebody please give me a short description of what has to be done, or even just scan the pages and upload them? I would be more than thankful, as well as my MCO came blank. Does this mean i have to fill it out by my own and sign with a false name for the representative?

Found this owners manual for the HAWK 250
http://therps.net/User%20Manual/Hawk...s%20Manual.pdf Don't have much help other than the link to the manual, and when reading through it I see they use "TORCH" spark plugs, (can you check your bike and confirm please?) I have had nothing but problems with everything I have used with a TORCH, if the Manual I linked to is correct it comes with a "TORCH D8RTC", I would personally change whatever it is out to a NGK, preferably Iridium. D8RTC should be crossed referenced to a NGK DPR8EIX9 (or DPR8EIX-9 or NGK 2202 should be the numbers) http://www.sparkplug-crossreference.com/ has never let me down when finding a good Japan made spark plug. I sometimes have to cross reference to Denso "IX or IU" series before I can find NGK Iridiums Hope I can help you bike start easier than the $400 String Trimmer Kit, the $3,000+ Husq Riding Mower, a $1,300 Husq 2 Stage Snow Thrower, all took several hundred attempts to start before replacing the (correctly gaped) TORCH spark plug. Now they all start first or second pull, it only costs $8 or so for a sweet Iridium Spark Plug, $ well spent when I'm not exhausted just trying to start the equipment

the install instructions I scanned are too large to post here. in a compressed PDF format they are still about 1 MB. anyone know a place or way to post them? I sent a copy to fishtime9, but would like to get them out here for everyone's use.

Couple more things, its not a bad idea to hook up one of those battery charger connector cables to your batt during assembly. Check the trueness and spoke tightness of both wheels, and air up those knobbies to suit your own weight and road surface. factory specs were high for me on the large gravel/rock stuff i have here., made the bike almost unrideable. Last thing, you will probably notice the clutch lever is damned stiff. Not a big deal. the problem is the chinese reticence to lube pretty much anything. You will save yourself a lot of stress and anxiety by removing the clutch cable from the handlebar lever and dripping some lube, machine oil etc., down it, also throw some grease on both the axle shafts, the rear shock mount, especially the speedo cable and front fork hub speedo receptor housing: all during assembly. Also look at your chain, clean, lube and adjust! Way too tight from factory on mine. at some point you will probably want to order up a 16 0r 17 tooth countershaft sprocket from amazon or ebay, unless 30 something mph is what you look forward to. I was told the hawk was designed for primary use in rural parts of Africa and South America and i believe it having been both places. If you like rough terrain, you are going to like those tires. On wet pavement do NOT be playing "joe racer" In closing, Just remember the old saying," (good) fortune favors the prepared", prep your hawk right, and get ready for many many smile filled miles In time i think you will consider the Hawk one of the Great deals in motorcycling. (ok last last thing. call your seller on the MSO, i had a blank one too, the real filled out one arrived in mail two days after bike

In addition to Seer's excellent guidance, a cable luber is a good idea. It will make short work of lubricating cables, and it's very effective.

assembly instructions
I never had any. the manual does have lots of useful information. The amount of hardware I received seemed to be random handfuls. same with my buddies bike.

I told motocheez he needed to write up a proper owners manual and assembly instructions and I'd pay $ for it as would most people. Hopefully he will. I'm close to buying a hawk and it would be a great help since I'm not very mechanically inclined.

There is a crude video on YouTube of the RPS guys assembling the hawk but no sound.
