Well I did it,new Hawk DLX is on its way

BigFatAl · 11-05-2019, 10:59 PM

After doing months and months of reasearch and being REAL with myself about how I’m REALLY going to use the bike I decided on the DLX..
Took about 3 minutes to buy including the credit application (12 months same as cash 0%).
Bought from Orion Powersports
Woooohooooo

Well I payed off my 2016 KLR650 a couple months ago and it was $160 a month and this is $165 a month for 12 months so no biggie

Good job, I hope you have a great time. Heck I’m sure you will.
I’m just so happy another one has turned to the dark side.

I still have my KLR and a ZL600 but now I have 3 Chinese bikes !!

Congrats on the DXL.

Musictrek · 11-06-2019, 12:34 PM

my next bike is the RX4. Too bad KMart doesn't have layaway like they use to. growing up all my toys were on layaway at KMart lol.

Duckman · 11-06-2019, 02:35 PM

Wait a minute, I know I’m new to all this stuff. But are you saying A Kawasaki KLR650 is a Chinese bike? Again I’m very inept when it comes to this stuff so forgive my ignorance.
Thanx Duckman out

The Kawasaki KLR650 engine is made in Thailand

Duckman · 11-06-2019, 08:42 PM

Wow no wonder they run so darn good.

Duckman · 11-06-2019, 09:19 PM

I’m actually thinking about buying either a Royal Enfield Himalayan or a KLR 650.

BigFatAl · 11-06-2019, 10:47 PM

I guess I worded that wrong,now I have 3 Chinese bikes AND a KLR650 and ZL600.

GlennR · 11-07-2019, 07:32 AM

I never thought about it, but I guess collecting bikes based on their country of origin could be a theme. I've got a Japanese, an Austrian, and a Chinese. I guess I should consider shopping for an American, an Italian, A German, and a British bike to balance out the garage.

I'd probably need to start shopping for a new wife too...because the one I have would probably leave me! Hmmm...I wonder which bike would be the tipping point?!!

Only one way to find out....

I would have more bikes but at $220+ per year each to insure its not worth it, 2 is bad enough.
