Hawk 250 - replace gearshift spindle
Sooo
The shift lever broke on my Hawk yesterday after a slow low side yesterday. Not the pedal, no, no, but the lever rod itself just inside of the splines. Twisted right off. This is a stock pedal clamp with my own bolt. Suspect I shouldn’t have used a bolt that wouldn’t strip out and allow the clamp to shred. Yay!!! Who carries stock engine parts and is responsive? Does the TT250 engine match? Last edited by richinar; 12-13-2017 at 11:50 PM. |

The TT250 looks like a possible match but not sure. Check with TXpowersports

Ah. I didn’t see that Txpowersprt had the Hawk
I have been in touch. I bet that’s it. In cracking into this I’ll need a book. Which Honda engine should I look for a manual on? |

Thanks a ton
So, could I presume that a CG125 gearshift linkage and spindle will also fit? A Honda part would ease my mind. Last edited by richinar; 12-12-2017 at 09:10 PM. |

That I could not answer unless I had one in hand to take measurements.

Local dealer had no new but did have a used part - in fact, they had 3!
$20.82 including tax have test fit everything and its a perfect match Honda is shorter by a pinch - not a problem at all the big difference is the spindle material will post detailed side by side comparison later THANKS for the help!!!

Here we have the stock Hawk shift lever spindle beside the Honda part 24610-107-760
Hawk is gold tone electroplated while Honda is light silver The shaft end which butts against the right side cover is much rougher on the stock part with a very course machining done at the factory, probably not a big deal in this application. the Honda part also has a small dimple in the center While a workshop manual suggested removal of the clutch and oil pump would be necessary, it was not. Only had to remove rear brake pedal, kick-starter lever, disconnect clutch cable, also remove header pipe for easier access to clutch connection, and the right side cover. All eleven bolts for cover are 8mm flange bolts with one being longer than the others (the long one is forward most on the case). I don’t have a metallurgical degree, but experience with steel bolts with these appearances used in other automotive applications, I know which I would think is stronger. As far as measurements, the only differences is the stick out from the crankcase will be 5mm shorter with 4mm coming off the shaft before the spline and the outer splined portion being 1mm shorter. The welds, plate and spring seem to be comparable.

Views of right side interior shown here
Forgive the rotated images The forward-most mounting for the cover has a small sleeve protruding from the case for alignment assistance, this is where the long cover bolt goes. Remove the cover straight back a good distance to clear the kick-starter shaft. Looking at the shift plate in the next image, there is a circlip (removed in detail photo) which is removed from the gearshift spindle and then a spring retaining this plate. Ease the plate out and then the shifter can be withdrawn through the right side. When re-installing, be sure to use a little assembly lube or oil and align the tabs of the large spring to go on each side of the case extrusion for such purpose. The clutch engagement rod has a notch cut out which did not seem to show any problematic wear.
