Just pulled the trigger on a hawk
Just pulled the trigger on a hawk 250 from TXpowersports 1600 out the door with tax and title and plates. Now it's time to clean up the garage to make room. Any advice on getting it insured? I have progressive insurance. I will keep everyone updated with the progress hopefully we can all learn from each others missteps and Successes.

Congrats man. I got state farm insurance. All I got is liability though, cost me $10 a month. Having full coverage was outrageously expensive for a bike I payed $1,400 for. Good luck

Geico has done me right. It’s 100$ a year. That was for 1 motorcycle. When I added the second it didn’t even change! Stayed 100$ a year. Not complaining!

I have the carb, jet kit , exaust,and sprockets in my Amazon cart. Should I order them now and install when I Assemble the bike or should I wait until I have a couple hundred miles on it .I also picked up lock tight blue in a chapstick and zerk fittings and a tap for the swing arm and Steering head.
