Factory Burrito Tube?
I was on therps.net and found what looks like a factory burrito tube for the Hawk, but there is no price listed. Here's the link:
http://therps.net/DB-Hawk.html It's under the heading "Battery" http://therps.net/Parts/Hawk/Battery%201200.jpg I guess it's on the newer Hawks. Can anybody confirm? Is it better than the trusted "Owners Manual" burrito tube? Is it lockable? Happy Memorial Day!

I got the same unknown battery too. But its been holding up. I think the problem with the stock battery is that there's nothing wrong with them. If people would follow the instruction that come with the battery or any other battery they wouldn't have any issues. The first thing you should do before even assembling the bike is to put the acid in the battery to activate it. Let it sit for at least an hour before putting a slow charge on the battery. This goes for any battery. Each manufacture has there own instruction on how to activate the battery.

I concure, Good find.
Now the bad news: it looks like the stock burrito tubes us Bashan owners were gifted. In the picture, you're looking at the top"passenger" side, with the "lock" on the bottom kind of behind it in the picture. That said, it's locking mechanism is a joke and certainly NOT a place I'd keep reg/ins papers or any kind of valuables. It's far from weather proof, and is nothing more than a gimmic. Please forgive the "up skirt" pic of my Brozz, showing it's Kawasaki green underwear Lmfao!
