My 2 cents when it comes to thick mud, you need a 10/90 tire (10 on road, 90 off road) like the Kenda Trakmaster 2. Most 30/70 to 60/40 style tires are just not up to the task of thick heavy mud.

It's very realistic though. At 6ft 4 and 260lbs, I am quite literally an average Asian man and woman combined in weight. The Hawk has a capacity of 330lbs, meaning even if I did carry a passenger,...

It really comes down to your budget and what you primarily want to use the bike for. Road duty and the Hawks are fine. Big fuel tank, big seat. The Templars are going to be better off road.
