A New Beginning.
So, while I sit here still waiting for shipping confirmation on my Hawk, which means it won't be here this weekend, but hopefully next weekend, I decided to order the stuff with the money from selling my welder. I decided to make a few changes from the last time, which proved a challenge with the desire for certain upgrades that were more expensive and having a restricted budget.
So here is the breakdown of everything going on my Hawk during assembly, or sometime shortly after - depending on shipping times. I still have parts that I removed or didn't install yet on my last Hawk. Carburetors - I have a collection lol. PZ30 Pumper, PWK30 and 32mm, Mikuni VM30-83. Intakes - CRF230 and TT250. I will likely run the TT250 intake with the pumper carb because it will be the easiest to setup and run for break in. Then switch to the PWK32 or VM30 on the CRF intake. Ported Head - being installed during assembly. Sorry, but I don't care to wait anymore. Oil cooler setup Jerry's brand Skid plate (so glad I removed those two items). 3 wire CDI coil and new spark plug wire kit - never got around to installing it. Honda sprocket studs Fork Brace - another part I never got around to installing. TT250 cargo rack Another item that I have had for a couple of years, originally purchased for my Goldwing, that I have decided to install on my Hawk is a set of 4 Motogadget M. Blaze Pin turn signals. I already own them, so it saves me money, even if they are kind of a pricey part to put on a Chinese bike. Changes from the last bike. Mighty Max gel battery YTZ7S: Another price compromise. Saved me $100 over getting another Lithium battery. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Shinko 700 Tires. 4.6x18 and 3.0x21 Tubliss Gen 2 front and rear 18/21 kit. - Managed to get a 20% discount on this one. Outlaw Racing "Bark Busters" https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 YSS PD238 fork valves KEOGHS 320mm rear shock from Aliexpress https://www.aliexpress.com/item/KEOG...65974c4do9cbnT Similar style rear muffler to what I installed earlier this year, but with a metal tip instead of plastic, also an Aliexpress item and cheaper than the one from Ebay by $2 after shipping. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/CNC-...65974c4do9cbnT Then of course, replacing the same parts as the last time. IMS Shifter 13 tooth front sprocket (already have a 33) Another DID VX2 520 chain. Goodridge Brake switch banjo bolt Pro Grip 737BK grips The cheapie alarm - heck why not. Adjustable levers. Wolo Horn NGK DPR8EIX plug 6awg Ground Strap. Inline Blade Fuse to replace glass fuse. - I had to buy a 10 pack, so I will have extras if interested Renthal Fat Bars and Pro Taper Riser adapters from Aliexpress I decided against the round headlight idea for now, so instead I ordered one of Superbright LEDs fanless H4 LED headlights. Not as bright as something like the OPT7, but much lower power draw and an internal driver. Will make for a much simpler install. https://www.superbrightleds.com/more...eat-sink/3930/ This should be a pretty fun assembly process. The best part is, I have $6 left from my welder sales money. Now I can go get a burger lol. Anyway, I decided to start this thread and then update it as the bike comes in and the process begins. I will likely be doing written and video updates during the process on this thread.
