It really comes down to you 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.

The "filter" is only there to protect the oil pump from large shavings and chunks of metal. Think of it more like a kitchen strainer than an oil filter. The actual oil filtration doesn't use a...

Easy way to rule out the battery would be to hook up a jumper pack. If you don't have one of those you can use jumper cables and connect to a car battery - just make sure the car is not running.

The CSC Unit's aren't any stronger really, but like with most parts on the CSC bikes, the quality is definitely a bit better. Great factory replacement/minor upgrade option.
