2021 Hawk

Snow11 · 10-25-2022, 08:23 PM

Hi All.
New here and to chinese bikes.
I'm going to look at a 2021 Hawk Xp Pro with 2800 miles on it I was told it's in good running condition with no upgrades the only thing it needs is a exhaust gasket.
So like to know what should I look for/ ask about.
He is asking $700.
Thanks in advance

Sounds like a good deal to me.

Check for:

1. Cracks in frame welds.
2. Leaks under the crankcase.
3. Brakes, lights, turn signal function.
4. General condition (plastics broken?)
5. Is it properly jetted?
6. Condition of tires?

Also check out chain/sprockets. Is the chain adjusted (about 2cm play), lubed and not much noise when rolling. You might check spokes and notice if the wheels wobble at speed on the road.
Also check the 4 turn signal mounts and lenses.
When riding, does it shift crisply, or loose (from abuse).
Headset loose? Check this by holding front break and rocking forward/back.
Some these are only adjustment issues
