So Many Hawk Issues!

[Bruces]

Around here ,we help each other ,we even try to help you in case you haven’t noticed .Not naming the “distributer in Texas “ ,is not helping anybody ,wouldn’t you feel better if you knew that shady “Manny” dealerships are all over Texas ,documented on this very site ,warning of his slimy business practices before you bought from him ? (Yes I am assuming you bought from Manny who is historically the shadiest scumbag we have dealt with ) Do a search on our site for “manny” and you will see the kind of crap he has pulled on members ,and why exactly we wouldn’t recommend anybody buying from him (unless you are standing in front of him ) let alone having one of his 8 year old bike assemblers .
Good luck with your problems !

Think of your Hawk kind of like a woman...if you want to ride her long and hard, you have to give her lots of attention!!!

I watched any number of Hawk owner videos...plenty of nightmare stories from the pre-counterbalanced engine days of bolts falling off; videos about title and registration fails...

But a number of the more recent videos seemed to show owners pretty happy, with bikes starting on demand

I'm over the worst of the Hawk's problems. Upgrading the battery and replacing the ridiculous battery and solenoid "thick wires" with actual cables helped a lot.
