This may have been covered, however what is this? Looks like a regular Hawk?
They claim 75mph top speed..... https://www.tuffatvs.com/Detail.cfm?id=99 Last edited by wrastu; 04-22-2018 at 10:46 AM. Reason: more info |

I see it as false advertisement. Looks like a regular Hawk to me in the pictures. I would request actual pictures of these upgrades.
UPGRADES ALL OVER THIS ONE, HENCE THE DLX (deluxe) NAME!! Heavy Duty, reinforced fame, aluminum triple tree/forks, aluminum handlebars, aluminum footpegs, enhanced engine for more power on the low end, Hi-Flow exhaust and piping!! I see no evidence of these upgrades in the pictures. The Hawk comes with steel handle bars, steel foot pegs and a plugged up exhaust. Now if they actually do have these upgrades it would be a great price. The Hawk is capable of 75mph but not in stock form. It will take some fine tuning and mods.

No you don't want that, this is better, etc, etc. Who is a reasonable dealer that knows what they are selling and doesn't assume I know nothing and they have to steer me to what they are selling. I had a price from an SSR dealer on a 250 for $4980! Yamaha shop 60 miles from my place is selling 2018 XT250's for $3999. I just want a decent little putt put to play with, geez The Hawk and Bashan bikes are more what I am looking for, they seem to know nothing except what the paper says, and they seem to be all about selling but really don't know their product.

I did find a Storm 250 at a regular motorcycle shop out the door at $1895 alreat assembled , prepped, and set up, title paper work should be easy, not sure if its a deal or not.

I purchased through Killermotorsports. Nothing but good things to say from my experience.

So I finally got an email back from them. They didn't answer a single question. Just Thanks and a picture of a stock Hawk on the left side. No picture of the Hi-flow exhaust. lol I replied back asking about pictures of all the upgrades that you are advertising on your web site. Waiting on that reply now.

I doubt you will get a reply back. From what I can tell though, the DLX looks to have a massive 15cc larger engine, stiffer fork springs, and a bunch of parts you can add to a normal Hawk. Until more official info is released we will be guessing. Stock photos of the normal Hawk and even the RPS Viper (???) seems to be all we will get.
As of right now I have seen nothing that will make me give up my normal Hawk. Especially not for double the price.

I saw that. Hate deceptive dealers. And they wonder why they get bad reviews.
