New Bashan Storm Building! All done! 10+ hours later
All finished assembling going over bolts, adding LED turn signals and headlight. Leaving the speedo out until a few guys on here have done it and can help me! Getting my papers next week then will be on the road! More mods to come for sure but in the future. Need a bigger battery to power the speedo too.

Looks good! Half the fun is putting it together. The other half is breaking it in and doing more mods later. Good color choice btw.

Swing Arm: http://chinariders.net/showpost.php?...4&postcount=95 Steering Stem: How little grease these coem with - http://chinariders.net/showpost.php?...&postcount=137 How they should look - http://chinariders.net/showpost.php?...&postcount=138 And, the video on the basics of servicing the steering stem (applies to all Chinese Enduros - wrench sizes may vary) - http://chinariders.net/showpost.php?...&postcount=140 Small is a relative term. My Hawk is "small" compared to my vfr or my old Goldwing in terms of weight. In terms of height, length, etc it's dimensionally big. I like to call the Hawk and other CB's "low density" machines. Big in size, but lots of air lol.

It looks nice but why did you decide to keep the rack off?

Thanks! And I don't like the racks honestly and i never have. I put the rack on my last Chinese bike and I NEVER used it even once, so I just left it off this time.
