New old guy

Hey, I'm Jim from Washington, been looking at the Hawk motorcycles, and found this place. The wife and I have been off bikes for a few years, but since moving to a more rural place, want to get our feet wet again. Glad I found a place for info on these bikes.

Welcome aboard! The Hawk is a a good bang for the buck bike for sure. These Hawk owners on here and turning wrenches and fine tuning them resulting in very reliable machines. . . . not to mention the miles of smiles created.

Welcome aboard Jim. When or if you go with the hawk be sure to change those fluids, adjust the valves, replace the spark plug, and tune that carb.

I spend a lot of time in your terrific State, mostly around the area between the Canadian border and Seattle.
