Bought a Hawk, am I missing anything?
So, I just ordered a Hawk and some mods over the weekend. I spent weeks reading all the posts and going through all of the YouTube videos available, but like it's been said before by others, the community here played a pretty big part in my decision.
So far I've ordered the following: MIKUNI VM26 with genuine 30/120 jets and foam air filter. (Live in Florida, pretty much at sea level, found another member from FL and apparently he's using those same jets with a few bolt-ons) CRF EBAY exhaust and exhaust wrap 520 Chain with 13/35 JT Sprockets and the Honda 90128 bolts NGK Iridium IX plug Kenda heavy duty TR6 tubes + a bottle of loctite/marine grease, some snap ring pliers, chain breaker set, still need to buy oil/brake fluid, etc. Anything else you guys can think of? I'll replace the levers and shifters when they break. Probably change out the handlebars as well. ![]() |

Looks like you've done your homework and got it covered.

Pretty complete list for a modded Hawk.
Make sure to have some brake parts cleaner on hand to clean up the rotors and pads. Some cable lube is also a good idea. If you want to give it the full treatment, pick up a .5L bottle of fork oil and change out the fork oil as well, although judging from your list I have a feeling that is included in the "etc." portion. Other than that, if you want the full modded Hawk experience eventually add the Tach cluster that Mjstef sells - he should be getting them in stock in a week or two, and think about adding an oil cooler in the future.

Ferrari's are red for a reason. Everyone knows red is the fastest colour, (and a cop magnet).
