Can someone help me pick which bike to get?

Hi everyone, great forum.

I was looking to buy a bike mainly for dirt roads/2 lane roads sometimes trails in the woods but nothing very intense. I might take it fishing etc. I live in WV.

Here are the 2 bikes I was considering: the rps hawk and another bike (Fleetwood or lancer) 250 that has a rack and rectangular headlight. Here are links.

****** 2 *******

As I see it, the rps hawk advantages are: lots of them around, more support, parts easier to get, more online help and videos etc, just more popular.

The advantages of the "Fleetwood" or "lancer" is at least for me the rack on the back. Also I think the tires might suit me better. I am a little concerned about finding parts.

For me, at least a rear rack is essential, but maybe that could be added on to the hawk without too much trouble.

Does anyone have any advise regarding this decision?

Thanks everyone for taking the time to look at my post and any advice.
