Jet's Hawk 250

jet321 · 07-04-2016, 01:16 PM

Hello all, I've been viewing these forums for about 4 months and finally bought myself a hawk 250. I bought a used one for $750 w/ 2400km and will make up the rest to the 1500 retail price in mods and parts. I will be using this thread for individuals seeking guidance and ideas. Currently the bike has a cracked tank (did not know at purchase), Neutral light does not work, and the fuel gauge does not work. I am currently dissembling the bike and making changes. I have painted all the fairings and am working to fix the tank.

I've read a few threads about the tank issue and mine is cracked at the bottom by the mounting point above the carb. Its going to be about a 4 week process of updating and upgrading the bike.

Planned mods:
Paint - Fairings/wheels/other parts - done
Exhaust - done
New Tach cluster (I hope matt has some left next week) - done
New shift lever - done
Conversion to full LED lighting - done
Spark plug/line - Done
Tires - Shinko 705's
Grips - done
Protaper bar pad - done
New taillights and fab'd license plate bracket - done
Fab'd skid plate
New Mukini 30mm carb and jets - done
new 16T/44T sprockets with chain - done
side mirrors - done
seat mod - thanks motocheez
burrito tube
possible new air box - prev owner screwed it all up
gold hand levers - iffy about this one

I hope you guys chime in on issues and provide info, I WILL BE SURE TO SEARCH THE FORUM BEFORE ASKING, IF I DO IT WILL BE DIRECTED HERE.
