The sound of thunder travels 1 mile every 5 seconds. Keep up the great hawk vids.
the gas tank on the Hawk 250 is 3.7 gallons
Here is what my 2017 Hawk owners manual says:
Fuel Recommendation
Type - Unleaded
Octane number - 90 or above
Unleaded fuel procedures fewer engine deposits and will extend the life of the exhaust
system components. We suggest you use regular unleaded fuel. Be sure to only use an
octane number of 90 or higher. Using a lower octane gasoline can cause severe damage to
the engine. Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/gasoline mixture.
Fuel Capacity
Fuel tank capacity, including reserve - 14L
Reserve capacity - 1.78L
After using the reserve tank you should refill the gas tank immediately. Then turn the fuel
valve to the “ON” position so you do not run out fuel in the reserve tank.
So 3.7 gallon tank with 0.47 gallon reserve. Which means 3.23 gallons before reserve. I would imagine you could go nearly 30 miles on reserve (if you rode conservatively) before it completely runs out. When a bike does not have a fuel gauge as not all do, especially the old ones. The typical way was needing to flip it to reserve as the way to know you need gas.
oh wow thats way bigger than I expected the tank to actually be, I guess I still had alot more gas left in there! Good thing I calculated the mileage the way I did so it should still be pretty accurate, I know the newer hawk tanks are slightly different with but the size can't be too big of a difference
Used to just look into the top of the tank after removing the filler cap. (30+ years ago.)
@@dennisyoung4631 Same thing on my 1981 Honda xl250s!!!! Don't forget to shake the bike side to side a little to see if it's low!!!!
Walmart ruined our small business here in sw Oklahoma. It took away the personality of the town and now we are like any other city
Nice bike luv the color
Of course it's true sound travels at a certain speed All you need to do is know the speed of whatever it is is traveling and you can estimate the distance.
I know this video is 7 months old. But you asked about pants. I wear Dimond Gusset jeans. They are a heavy denim with Kevlar lining the hips and ass.
Oooo thank you I'll have to look into those!
I really wanna get a hawk with the enduro wheels and the upgraded shocks, imma start saving up and things soon.
Have you checked the accuracy of the odometer? Cuz that could throw off your result. 59mpg seems kind of low to me. My ninja 250 averages 65 around town. I would expect the hawk to use less gas
Yes I have, had to change the settings to get my mileage and speed correct via GPS but since then it's been spot on, the hawk probably uses more gas simply because it was designed less efficiency than a ninja 250, and you're basically full throttle 80% of the time on the hawk lol
@@BodieMoto true. Full throttle makes a big difference. Once i rode a rebel 250 wide open on the highway for 350 miles. Averaged 45mpg lol
@@alexsbikesandmotors my rebel 250 wouldn't see anything below 80mpg, with a max of 120mpg on a continuous 40mph ride. I swapped out the sprockets from I believe the stock 14/33t to a 15/25t.
Do you know where I can buy parts at for the Hawk 250? I have a warped front wheel that needs replacing.
Look up csc motorcycles
@@BodieMoto thanks
Did you have to switch to the reserve tank? I missed the part where you ran out of gas
no I never actually ran out of gas, didn't even get close! the calculations still work out though this I only measured gas used
1.5 liter MSR fuel bottle for longer trips?
What did you mean when you said you hit the pothole but the bike isn’t built like a dirt bike anymore? 🤔 Did you do another modification change? Because I ordered the Hawk and all the mods you have recommended.. 😎🤘
its more of a light trail bike, it looks more like a dirt bike than it actually is and I had my rear suspension set up super soft in this video which made pot holes and stuff like that really bouncy. This bike can't really compare to a true dirt bike like a yz 250 but its a great commuter that looks like a dirt bike, if you're buying this bike to hit jumps at the motorcross track then that would be very very unsafe and I don't recommend it. Thode dirt bikes are expensive but they are made to a way higher standard
I did end up going with the 195mm gas shock in the rear with the adjustable spring load it’s very durable. Thank you so much I really appreciate I enjoy watching your videos 👍😎
How much you paid in all for the bike and shipping
1700
Oh wow i got to get me one of them bikes you made me really want one now you got it running good to bro
I live in south America and got the Serna rx250 the same price love it I go all through the mountains 350 Mile's later still kicking ass they should be the same bike all the same spec @@ddwddw4115
Is 87 octane ok on a hawk 250?
Yes it's recommended
1:33 Opposite of my bike. Means your bike is too lean.
0.06 per mile that's not bad
It's still twenty as much as if you were to ride an ebike. My ebike cost me 0.003 cents to operate.
True but they are waaaaay to slow to ride with traffic around here, I sold my 52v x class because of that. People drive super fast around here, you'd have to have an upgraded sur ron to comfortably ride in traffic and that's barely an ebike lol that's more emoto. When you actually break down the math, it will take me at least 2 years of filling my gas tank every single month and 10s of thousands of miles to make up the price difference between a fast enough ebike to compare to this motorcycle. You really don't save much money buying an ebike because of how expensive they are to simply buy lol you can get a Hayabusa for the same price as a fully modded sur ron. If you're worried about money and buy an ebike you aren't good at math lol
@@BodieMoto loved your point of view. I agree that ebikes are somewhat expensive. I merely pointed out the math purely from a scientific point of view.
Just an fyi I drive a Volvo S60 inscription model for the luxury.
I just hate how ridiculous the gas prices get simply because of speculation.
You can't beat the hawk DLX in price...! Good video BTW.
The crotch area problem sounds like you may have accidentally ordered women’s jeans
