This is why I buy from CSC

I ordered a part from CSC. They called me back and said the part they had was scratched and that they would get a new order in two weeks. They would have discounted the part, but I told them I would wait. In the meantime, I found two Hawk Distributors that advertise that they sell the part. I called them and was told I need to place an order online. I asked them if they had the part in stock. They said I would need to submit an inquiry. I did so. I haven't heard back. Guess what? CSC calls and sends the order. That's why I buy from CSC. They also are very responsive when you write or call for any type of support. They're probably sick of me, but you would never know it. I just had to give them a shout out, they deserve it.

Great. CSC knows that service like you received is just as important as the low prices on the bikes.

Whenever I have to buy replacement parts, and the TT250 Parts will fit my Hawk, I will go with CSC! I bought a replacement seat from them and they were great!

Enjoy the Ride!

Bought a TT250 head from them, it came with more open flowing head than stock Hawk. Runs like a scolded ape now.

Too bad CSC doesn't carry a Grom clone other than the electric version they have ,I keep hoping they will add one to their lineup ,I'm just not a fan of electric motorcycles

due to limited range, long charge times and usually higher cost ,and frankly i like combustion engine noise ,even if Emotorcycles had comparable range and fast charge times , and comparable pricing I just don't think I would like a bike that made no noise .I guess I'm justa knuckle draggin' neanderthal about that.

Did you mount the head as it comes from CSC or did you shave the head 1mm to increase compression ratio?

Enjoy the Ride!

As far as I remember, he just installed it as is. I remember the pictures he posted up of the head though, the port casting shapes are much more open and much smoother than the typical CG head like the Hawk has. They could still benefit from a little port work, but way less than the stock one.

I've never done business with them but it's kind of hard to be worse than RPS and all their dealers/resellers or those flea-market wholesale grade Apollo bikes..

I'd recommend CSC or a used jap bike to anyone I didn't want to piss off..

I was looking at dual exhaust port heads today, but it is a little unclear as to which one suits the 250.
125 - 200 was easy to find but they have the head studs closer together I thought.

I know they are out there and been searching myself. I can't remember what bike it was on. Hate getting old and not being able to remember S__t.

Yeah, I put the TT250 head on as it came, I did move the valves and springs over from the Hawk head. No problems.......
