Your editing/sense of humor just cracks me up! I never know what to expect. 😂

I have never personally owned a motorcycle but after watching you build god knows how many I actually feel fairly confident I could put one of these together! Which is good since I'm really tempted to get one of these myself, because of all your adventure videos

Just sold my 2021 Hawk. Just wanted a dirt bike to hit the Texas interstate to go to work. I have a HD also. With the Hawk it was hard to keep up with other riders lol. I ended up going to the Honda dealership and bought a 2021 Honda XR650L and sold the Hawk to a good friend at work to ride with his wife on her Honda Navi. The 22 and 23 are white and I wanted the classic ride red bike. The XR has a ton of torque and runs 75 mph @ 1/4 (or a little more)throttle. Got it up to 100 mph and backed off lol. Just wanted to hit triple digits on a dirt bike. With 40 hp and 47 ft lbs of torque it’s a wheelie machine. It weighs 344 lbs wet and that’s the one thing I miss about the Hawk. Looks like the Hawk is coming up but just needed something with a lot more balls. Have fun and ride safe and great vid.

Oiiiii!!!! What a friggin treat. Wasn’t expecting a new hawk video!! X GON GIVE IT TO YA lol

Nice can't wait for the ride video

My boy traveled back in time to 2013!!

Can't wait to see you ride it.

Ordered mine today! Finally! Thanks for the code bro.... can't wait to get started when it gets here!

Nice glad to see ya doing the bike reviews again! Would like to see ya do the Lifan kpx 250 next and then maybe the templar 250 keep up the good work!

Cool video man. In South Africa this bike is sold by Big Boy as a TSR 250. It is essentially the exact same bike with different stickers, some slightly better switches, a digital guage, and LED lights all around. Mine also has the older sprockets (17F and 50R), and I am going to change those out to a 16F and a 38R. All in all it looks like a great bike so far, and with it sold by a dealership I have great service both buying and servicing thr bike through them.

They FINALLY got the 'regular' Hawk EPA/DOT legal! No more ambiguous registration in those states that wouldn't register the 'Off-Road Motorcycle' version of the carbed Hawk.

Another hawkey to love :D

You should get a chest mount for your GoPro… it is so convenient. Also luv the vids man… it’s always nice to have videos that are educational

I think that i would lock tight everything. Thanks for sharing this

I'm always rewatching your videos on the hawk, thinking ill buy one, but I never do. Maybe one day 😄

Oh, the helmet mount when you’re riding is great I was just talking about when you were building the bike so you can use both of your hands lol I do like your videos a lot though because I have a Hawk of my own that I bought off of a kid for a couple hundred bucks and honestly it was a great investment to my motorcycle collection. I love it especially because they’re so cheap.

Great video! Interesting watching you put it all together. Just picked one of these up (fully assembled) from Q9 powersports out of Madison Wisconsin. Wanted something different as a second bike to my HD, We travel up north quite a bit and do a lot of trail riding on ATVs- so the Hawk will be an interesting alternate e to those. Mine is the '23 EFI DLX version. Was curious how many miles you put on yours before doing your "break-in" oil change? The manual mine that came with is not real clear....

I love the bike in the box vids. I'm a Motocheez head and my CT70 125cc lifan clone has a motocheez keyring flag.

Sold my taotao TBR7 a few years ago, miss that cool little bike, this looks like it might fill that void. Nice

It sounded a little less rattly lol. I swear some of the rattle went away from changing to a superior oil. It ran smoother right away for me. My TBR7 that is.

I only got one word for ya!! Saaweeettt!!! Lol hahah 😂 awesome new ride bud! Looking foward to seeing how this one does! That counterbalance engine must be nice!! Still a cg style engine though right?

Noiiice can't wait to me my Kpx2Fitty 💥🔥💨💨💨💨💨 good upgrades those Lil hawkiezzzz

Funny enough, I've only ridden my Hawk once this season after I got it inspected and registered. It wasn't getting good enough power because of the jetting we did to it last summer and we just haven't got around to messing with it. We've been riding the scooters around the most and we've been wrenching on my friends scooter as it's been very finicky. We finally got a mostly nice sunny day today and went for a scooter ride. After that we put the 30mm Nibbi from my Hawk onto his scooter to help with a fuel issue on it, the 24mm Nibbi that was on it wasn't giving it enough fuel no matter the jetting. Either way, it gives me an excuse to buy a flat slide Nibbi for the Hawk and to put knobby tires back on it. Now that I have the scooter I don't really need both as full on road bikes. So instead of modding the Hawk further now I can focus on having fun with the GY6 on my scooter. There's LOADS of good mod parts for the GY6 and they're not too insanely priced unless you choose to go that route. So, if you ever decide to play around with a Chinese scooter in the future skip everything else and buy a Vitacci Clash or a Vitacci Force. They're labeled as being 200's but they're actually 170cc machines. Compared to the other Chinese scooters of the same cc class they're the only two that offer factory installed EFI. Of all the times my friend and I went riding mine has had absolutely no fueling issues. It's not super speedy but it cruises at about 55/60mph just fine. I'm eventually going to get a nicer variator and clutch bell for mine and possibly change the gears in the gear box to get a little extra cruising speed so it's not always revving so high. Besides that it's been a fun machine. :)

After all your videos i decided in Im gonna put mine on layaway starting on my next check so I can get it in the beginning of the year when it ain't 110 degrees here. Not a bad price for a lil commuter which I'll probably use it to do as my first bike.

Oooo the HAWK is back!

Was subbed a very long time back even before the asylum videos lol. Somehow was unsubbed and now back. Recently purchased a Honda XR 150 and I'm having a good time with it. Stay safe bro

Nice big gas tank! I wonder how many viewers got the brylcream reference?

The brake light switch height adjustment you used to bolts to hold it in place then put a small spring on it, have done everything but can’t seem to find those bolts in your part section nor in my freshly arrived hawk parts

Waddup my brother cheez 🤘🏻🐿🤘🏻

I can't believe how popular these are getting. They are the Squire's of bikes. Instead of replacing the pickups, tuners, bridge, and electronics, you're doing the equivalent on a bike. I've read that people have invested the same amount in upgraded replacement parts that cost the same as the bike, just like a cheap guitar, but there is a segment of riders and players that love to tinker and personalize. It's almost as if HAWK built a bike that barely passes so that you can customize it.

Like it .

Sup Cheez?? this is AudioMonster. This is my new TBR7 channel, I will have my unboxing video up tomorrow morning :) New inverted shocks are on now too more videos to come!

WOW 2013! She's 10years old already LOL

FINALLY! ordered mine 3 days ago i pulled the trigger and went for it. it should be here soon enough i cant wait to get out riding on the back roads of appalachia mountains of north east kentucky, some nice scenic views and alot of dirt roads to explore, hey brother thanks for the 25.00 dollars off (code) i splurged a little extra to get it delivered with full assembly due to working 6 days a week. otherwise its nothing for me to put a bike together from scratch. i was wondering if you ever ordered one with full assembly before? and what extra might i have to put together when it comes in? any feedback would be awesome......

Windex works really well.

Quick question, how does the valve cover compare to the standard hawk? I have an oil cooler setup based off a valve cover that fits (roughly) the standard hawk and I'm curious whether or not this one would be able to fit it.

I am waiting for the next batch of Recon coming to Peacesports

Do you constantly have ro tighten alot of the bolts back up when they get lose.

Looks pretty good. I like the updates. But once again they forgot to put a little hair on it for Moto Rider

Now that you have ridden both DLX and Hawk X , which one would you prefer....Is there that much vibration difference between the conterbalanced engine and the DLX? I dont know which one to pick. Thanks

Have you got any experience with the xpro rxe 250? Been eyeing them past couple days.

What bolts did you use for the brake light you used?

My TBR7 has 6500 km on it now, replaced the chain and throttle cable, my son and I ride it all the time, been a pretty good bike for $1600 to my door.

Do you think the added emissions stuff would have any negative effects on a nibbi carb?

hey brother i have a question on the hawk X 250, just ordered a nibbi carb for it, threw it on bout an hour ago and im gonna get it tuned up tomorrow after work, but um! my question is i didnt see a fuel filter on the hawk X? is it built into the gas tank or something ? or just dont have/ need one? and did you notice the same thing with your hawk X 250, we have the same year same color, i bought the same exact one in this video, love this motorcycle it rocks!!.. any feed back would be much appreciated, and was wondering if the stock 128 jet in the 30mm nibbi is overkill or not? im betweewn 542 feet too 1,300 feet above sea level out here in appalachia eastern kentucky, been here 4 years now im a political prisoner from dutchess county new york And pennsylvania LOL!

Is the X logo on the tank a decal or etched in ?

Is the suspension better compared to the base model?

I am trying to order one, does TX Powersports have any other colors like Green or Blue? This might be my last Motorcycle I don't like that black color. My Raven has been a great Motorcycle no major problems. I should be able to sell it for a good price at 1,500 miles and Nibbi 30MM Carb.

what do you mean by counterbalanced is that a fml 163 motor i have the 09 shineray all road cg200 worked over

I like it and for the Price, not bad, let me know how fast she runs stock right outta the box. 😉👍🏼 Also is that $1799 shipped to your door on the east coast USA ?

EXCELENTE

Has cutting that piece of plastic off by the chain affect anything? Or is it definitely a must do?

could use some help im looking for the wiring diagram for Dongfang df150tka any help i would be great full

Hey when do you change the initial oil that comes in to

So I ordered a raven XL but they said don't have any for awhile and said they have this hawk X in stock would you get this hawk X over the raven xl?

This makes me wish I wasnt so broke :( . I gotta ask though. How long can you ride this continuously?

You'll have to compare how much power the counterbalancer robs against the original hawk non counterbalanced engine.

Cool

Does the hawk x use the same coil as the regular hawk 250?

So if I buy off amazon Id be getting the old model thats not balanced?

how often do you do oil changes on your hawk?

Is the plastic fuel tank tube necessary does it come with it?

You back in Connecticut?

I definitely recommend replacing all the important nuts/bolts that're made with super cheap low quality metal with much stronger metal ones. Some of the metal used to make it was incredibly weak like I could snap one of the bolts on it with very little pressure using a wrench. Like opening a pickle jar amount of pressure. And beware of the low quality metal issue leading to stripped threads when you take any bolts out. These problems make it very easy to do some major damage to the bike just by trying to fix it when it breaks which was often for me.

So is the lifan kpx still your favorite China bike.

Is the X worth it over the original? I want the original for customization

Hey I got my Hawk X. Can I use 87 octane? The manual says no but that's the highest octane available here in non ethanol.

Is this the only size in the hawk motorcycle lineup?

Why do the hawks come with that dent on gas tank? I thought it was something that happened to my bike while getting shipped but after watching more videos I noticed other people have the same dent

Not everything is working on my new digital cluster, speedometer and mileage. Fuel and other things are. Would too small of a battery cause this? Amps? It's a kpx250 China bike.

Does a title come with it in the mail or something?

Counterbalanced for cruising around the heliocentric model in a lower vibration. Just like they want. 6 speeds to get it over with quickly

I cant believe they didnt give you a digital display.

Is it possible to get a higher end rear shock for that bike? Anyone ever bother?

Hawk nutter. Cheezy style

Vin Cheezel said Deez Nuts 😂👍🏼 🤣🤣🤣

Definitely change the oil after running and warming it up once. It takes 1.3 liters now (not 1.5 quarts) This must be at very high altitude that it’s not bogging on the stock carburetor. I recommend re-routing the control cables on the handle bars and also using zip ties to close the boot on all the connectors. Don’t forget to check all exhaust bolts.

Is this model still carbed?

Waiting on that dlxxx pro strongest chonda in the balanced west model now 🤣 So my 2020 hawk came with the same gas cap. I use a plastic hose to vent it further down the bike, and in case Im a big dummy trying to put gas in it 🤣

I gotta figure out how we can do some sorta collab bro 🤘🏻🐿🤘🏻

dose that engine have a lifter tap

Camera is looking at the spark plug and narrator says wrong numbers. Interesting.

2013 did i miss something?

Omg why your importers keep selling you basically the same motorcycle from 7 years ago lol, here in the 3rd world we had the counterbalanced cg engine availible since like 2015 right now we can buy a voge 300 rally fuel injected liquid cooled etc.. dont take this as an offense since i own a 150cc yinxiang with a cb engine, its weird to see you dont get newer models in the US

So you quit knocking that nipple off the gas tank Moto, why don't you just shorten that clear tubing so that the breather filter is closer to the tank cap? Nice bike tho... Too bad CARB won't allow them to be sold in California.

Deez Nutz had me weak!!!!

By the way if it ain’t rated I it just ain’t cheezy bro 🤘🏻🐿🤘🏻

Well how pissed am i i just bought the old one

your thumbnail says "2013" LOL

Still $1,000 cheaper than the Honda XR150L

CA legal?

does it run after an EMP!?😂

Uhoh!

Give us 6 freakin speeds

Chinese or not it's a looker.

It might be an X...... But it's not the X26...!!!

🤔 Seat hump surgery to be scheduled soon ... I just know it ! 😎 lol

Beep

Still sucks california 🤮 wont allow them to be registered...
