In my experience so far...
All of my non-balanced CG's are like a blender until they're broke in, then smooth out pretty well.....or I adjust to it. The non-balanced motor also seems a very quiet running motor, mechanically. The counterbalanced motor was really nice out of crate, noticeably smoother than the non-balanced....and has gotten a little smoother now that it's broke in, especially at speed....but it is more mechanically noisy. I'm not too worried about the chain drive oil pump since some older Lifan's have gotten a boatload of miles (50k) out of them prior to needing a chain. Trade offs.... Six-a dozen....half another uh one....

What do you know! Someone agrees with me. I've been going through a batting slump the last few days.

I installed a front tubless Shinko 705 with the inner tube that the Hawk came with.I put around 500 miles on it with no issues.

According to the http://therps.net/ website, the specifications show 0.26 gallons of oil which is 1.04 quarts. Not sure why the manual says 1.60?

Dipsticks can cause troubles and seem to have a mind of there own.

I always wondered why my older brother always called me "Dipstick"......

Same engine as Cleveland Cycleworks Heist ?
Is the engine in the Hawk 250 roughly the same 250 Chinese engine Cleveland Cycleworks uses in the their Heist model ? I need to know for performance parts purposes .
