heres a link with them plus feeler gauges. Might be worth it for 8 bucks to get it and toss in the tool bag.

Imma go ahead and order them ,even though my current patience level with the extremely long delivery time ordering stuff from China on EBay is extremely short , while my frustration level is high ,nothing like waiting on parts you need for a build to take a month to arrive from China via EBay.

That would have made it much easier for sure. Is there clearance without moving the tank?
I used baby channel locks and a wrench. I got it right but it took some doing. |

Good question. Motocheez has a video showing that the Hawk tank doesn't need to be moved. Looking at my TT250, I think you do have to move the tank... Anyone know different?

Am i missing something i havent done the valve adjustment yet on my TT250 but after i looked at the tutorial on CSC website its just a 10mm bolt why spend the money on a home made looking tool when you can just as easily if not easier use a 10mm wrench that we all should probably have if we are doing any kind of repairs on these bikes. The only thing needed would be the feeler gauges and you can get them for 7.99 next day delivery on amazon. no waiting a month for delivery. again maybe im missing something or your hawks have the square nuts

Appel, I encourage you to remove the valve cover and see for yourself. The 10mm wrench is for the locknut, but the actual valve adjustment requires a square tool.
I use a #2 Robertson screw, which is referred to as a square drive in the US. It is 1.5" long and is screwed into a common yellow marrette electrical connector. It works beautifully and it cost me nothing.
