The carburetors on the Amazon motorcycles have bad reputations, but they’re not completely bad. It just happens that I dropped the bike and damaged the carburetor. Hawk250 - amzn.to/4bNahZh
definitely sounds fuel related. Take the carb apart and clean it with carb cleaner. You can find videos on how to do it. Add a fuel filter while you are down there. The alcohol in gasoline really messes the carb up. Good luck HW
I had a Hawk 250 with 8k miles in one year and sold it for what I paid for it. Bought a Orion rxb 250 efi and put 6k miles in a year and sold it for 200 less than what I paid for it. I now have a GPX FSE 300r with 1k miles and I would highly recommend there bikes. I was always wrenching the hawk 250. Orion I had bad customer service experience and the bike had issues. But the GPX is a forever bike for me with the quality. You get what you pay for.
I had an offer for the price I paid last year, but turned it down. I now have it listed a bit higher because everyone wants to negotiate a lower price. I still like it too much to sell, but want to try something different.
I would remove the carb, take it apart and clean it while you're there, and check if anything internal loosened up or got bent. Sounds almost like the float is getting hung up or something after the drop. If it is float-related, the engine could have ran normally for a short while until the float bowl emptied. Let us know how it goes!
The choke lever fell off and was stuck in choke off position. I got it back on but I had to bind the lever in the off position because as I rode it would slip back into full choke. I got a new one.
