Hawk 250 trails.

[pete]

theres a trail down the lower part of the island that has a
non stop 1600 metre "1.6kms" climb at 45* and steeper took me 9
attemps before I got to the top... coming back down 8 times was
real interesting as well...

Sometimes the going down is scarier than going up.

I have to get my head around the fact that
when most people say rough or gnarly terrain.. my idea of it is
probably quite diffrent to theres... my idea of rough is probably quite
extreme to others idea of it....
We have a enduro here I have riden twice called "the no way in hell enduro"
When you look at where you have to go you think to your self
there no way in hell you can get a bike though there/up there/down there...

Well, ole' buddy, my hats off to you riding that enduro. "No way in hell" I ever would have. ...ARH

Pete, the only way I would traverse that would be to disassemble the bike and carry it down, then reassemble it once I made it down. You need ropes and a harness for that, not a motorcycle.

at the end of the day you just about have to reassemble the bike...
half the bikes have some bit plastic missing...
My GasGas EC200 left radiator shourd up on those hills somewhere...

The 2 I rode were not as wet as it was that year...

So my next question is since it's a cg 125 clone would i be able to replace engine parts with the Honda ones if I need small upgrades or replacement parts?

some parts maybe... but on the whole i don't think they are
that close..A slight diffrents is a big diffrents when it
comes to engine parts...

would be good if I was wrong......

Would be awesome if your wrong lol. I guess if the motor goes it's dirt cheap to rebuild or I could find an actual Honda 250 engine

I think you are right. Two manufacturers will make them slightly different. Parts may well inter change, if they are machined to fit. The Chinese never heard of Eli Whitney...ARH
