ryan told me over the phone at the time they were agreeing to the final specs w zongshen, that "csc requested upgrades for pretty much everything that could reasonably be upgraded!"
My guess is that they are really trying to get favorable reviews vs. the big 4 at a fraction of the price. might get em too for everyone but racers Also, the detail on the new road bike looks hella good for anyone's entry 250 bike.

I agree on all points.
I look forward to your comparison of the Hawk and TT250 motorcycles.

X2! It would be a hoot to have both, parked side by side, and do about a 6 pack over comparisons.

Does the TT and the Hawk share the same seat geometry? I have heard complaints the dip in the Hawk seat forces you forward like sitting on a downhill slope.

I love the upgraded switch gear and mirrors. The adjustable dampening forks wil be nice for us 200+ pounders. Oh wait, it's Mrs 2LZ bike! Scratch that last one. ;-)

You want to see some good China welding, I'll get a pic of the aluminum swingarm on Q. Nice stuff.

This bike looks really good.
wieilds might need to be finished better but look very sturdy and they look like full wiields and not spots. best looking china duel sport I have seen on the market and I would be willing to bet my money on it in a shoot out with any other CB duel sport. just my opinion .
