My kit brought oil rings that were too big for the piston and i wasn't able to install it. thank God I tried everything first before taking the bike apart. I had to paid a certified motorcycle mechanic to trim and file the rings down to specs. I will try again in a couple of weeks once my frustration wears out. The sprockets, the jetted nibbi carb and the exhaust really woke up the bike so i might enjoy her with the 230cc cylinder for a bit
@Marcel Rivero yes usually you got to adjust the valves again at 1000 at that actually when my kick start actuallly started working before that i would kick it alday and not start all that ones i had same thing i have one with 3000 on it runs circles around the one with 600 miles on it
@Marcel Rivero happened to me on all them and i remember seeing on facebook it was a thing when you get near 1000 miles it starts working and really easy to ki k as mote miles gos on some weird thing with these hawks i know like 15 people with these bikes same thing witch is good when rhe batteries get weaker but yea i lo e these bikes i learned so mutch on them
I ordered the 300 big bore kit. Arrived in a week. Removed the engine assembly, like in your video. Set everything up TDC, etc. The cylinder sleeve would not go into the engine cases. Studing your video posting, You were one of the lucky few who received the 73mm OD sleeve kit. Not me, I got the 76mm OD sleeve version. Do you have any options as to a machine shop that can make it fit?
Probably too late, but most machine shops are offline, drive around and look for brick buildings with loading docks and hope for the best. the one in my town doesnt even have a sign, but will do custom jobs.
To a stock hawk you can tell a difference but that might be the gearing so i switched one of my stock hawks with the 17/45 gearing and let another one with the 15/50 might try to tomrroe to see the difference
I removed the Knobbies and put street tires on mine, (Never do that), Ooops. The treads got quickly filled with dog poo and I slid into an anthill. I caved in my left shoulder and couldnt get the bike off of me. Gasoline was all over me. I was riding alone. Oops. To get rid of the ants, I put gasoline in my mouth and spat on the ants that were all over me. God must have been there because when I finally got out from under a 300 pound broken bike, it started right up. I totally Taco'ed the front wheel. Clutch lever was gone. I rode the darn thing home.
Actually the bike was brought of someone from one of the hawk groups and the big bore kit was rose by jasso Lowithertz it has a fee other mods on it like pipe carb air filter and coil and has the 17 45 gearing I got 2 hawk I want to put this other big bore kit on it and change and just change the gearing on my other one then compare all 3 to see how big of difference they are will post the video when I get them done I think it's a video everyone would want to see
Actually did even test for top speed just picking it up for someone but i did have it up to 70 a few times with throttle left to pull and it was pretty flat the road but this bike had a after market pipe coil and the 17/45 gears
This bike has a big bore kit on to it give it alittle more power then stock theirs a few guys on the hawk group that sale them and do a really good job with them
Good morning, can I ask you a question. Do you know what part number the 17T front sprocket is. I've ordered 2 and none of them work. On one the shaft didn't fir, on the other one the chain doesn't match the teeth, I'm going crazy here. Lol
Not sure i had it at 73 at one point but let off because it wasnt mine but it can easily do 73 and i am like 230 i would say maybe etween 75 to 80 depending on weight
Not my bike but did seam to have alot more speed toward the hawk with stock gearing and aftermarket pipe and carb and still had really good pull even with the 17 45 sprockets other the super hawk had the after market chain and coil
Not sure of top speed wasn't mine UT I did have it up to 70a d had some throttle left and I am about 230ibs so I was impressed and wasn't sure when they put the big bore kit on so didn't want to try top speed on it yet wasn't sure if it needed a brake in period or not and this one had a street tire on it with 17 front 45 back sprockets
