Great video! What ever microphone you are using while you are riding is great! No wind static, and I can hear you and the bike perfectly. The bike sounds great for what it is, that's for sure. Probably going to get the hawk dlx towards the end of year. Thanks for the great content!
Thank you so much, you made my day. It's comments like these that make me want to continue making videos. I really appreciate the positive feedback and thank you so much for watching. By the way I'm using a standard Lavalier microphone from a road kit plugged into the GoPro massive audio converter. Hope this helps.
Great review! This same bike is sold in Mexico as "DM250 X" by the largest small cc bike seller here (Italika) at around $2,200 USD. The bike is all the same except we don't get the EFI 🤷🏻♂️ other than that it's all fun for off road and back roads. Ride safe 👊😎
Thank you so much for watching and supporting my channel. Have fun and keep the rubber side down.
I'm seriously considering buying one of these after I sell my brother's car. He moved to New York city and gave me his car! I don't really need 2 cars. But I'd love to have a car and a bike. This video helped a lot.
This is the one i want to get next it looks like it is a better bike but it has a carb and not EFI from my research this might be a better bike. I will review it next. you might want to check it out amzn.to/40bxX2A Thanks for watching.
Great video Hanz. Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge about this bike. I ordered the Hawk DLX 250 for myself and a Trailmaster 110cc for my oldest daughter.
Awesome have fun and be safe. Thanks for watching.
@@hanzdidit I'm the same height as you, so is this one the same height as the regular hawk? And are all of these bikes Honda CG clone engines ?
I would love to see your review on the Vitacci titan 250 !! You give the best reviews on bikes
Thank you so much for the positive feedback, it's comments like these that make me want to make more videos. I will definitely look into the new titan and see if I can get one to do a review. Thanks so much for watching and thank you for your feedback.
EFI is definitely the way to go.
A lot of difference. Start, ride, park. Thats it. I always carry my
HALO BATTERY JUMP STARTER WITH ME no matter what and a couple cans of fuel. The STUFF that has no alcohol stuff comes in a metal can in the lawn mower department at Lowes and Home Depot. I always carry tools ,spark plug, tire patch, and tire plugs, extra glue too with a 12 volt air compressor.
I just rolled over 750 miles on my basic 2022 hawk. I am pretty happy with it.
It is so good to hear positive feedback from owners of these bikes. Thank you so much for watching.
@@hanzdidit I baby it. I am not really interested in going offroad so I expect to avoid some of the common failures the dirt bike dudes have with them. I really enjoy your channel.
I'm ordering mine next week. Can't wait. I figured 15 minute drive to work spending $80 a week in gas on my 4runner I'd make up for that buying a cheap bike.
No kidding, the gas prices are nuts right now. This bike will pay for itself super fast. I hope you like it when you get it I don't think you'll be disappointed they are a lot of fun and get great gas mileage. Have fun be safe keep the rubber side down, thanks so much for watching and supporting my channel.
@@hanzdidit Most certainly. There is always some cure or loop hole we can use to our advantage. It'll also keep milage off my vehicles. You care about your channel and that'll get you far. Keep it up!
You should do more stuff man you have a great look about you
Thank you so much Jacquelin, You made my day! This is what I want to do full time so I am trying to get it going. Thanks for your support!
Definitely a great beginner bike but still a lot of fun for us old guys with fifty years of riding under our belt 😎🍻
No doubt about it. Thanks for watching.
Right on! 60yrs and I enjoy lightweight, inexpensive motorcycles!
@@hanzdidit
I just ordered the exact same bike how has your be running is it a good bike? I can't wait to get mine
Thinking of buying this bike to learn how to ride a motorcycle. I initially wanted to get a ninja 400 and learn on that. but they are much more expensive, and dropping a shiny new ninja would suck to say the least. Where if I drop this one while practicing, it wouldn't be such a big deal.
Sorry for the late reply.Yes I agree this would be a great bike to learn to ride. It is fun and cheep, plus it gets great gas milage.
I just got mine about a month ago, great bike, has 200 miles on it, just got my plate in the mail, did you have to drill new holes in the bike to mount the license plate? Indiana plate mounting holes are further out then the steel mounting holes on the bike.
Yes I did have to make new holes I'm not sure what the license plates are like in China but they must be much bigger than the ones in the United States lol. Thanks so much for watching.
Great video. Do you have any plans on getting magician?
Sorry for the late reply. I am trying to get all of the bikes from these Chinese sellers, so eventually hopefully I will be able to get this one and do a review. Thank you so much for watching, your positive feedback made my day.
Beautiful little area there.
thank you so much for watching
I found at least it seems like since I switched to the higher octane cost more but the bike run better and I don't fill up as much as I use too. I have the 2020 DLX
Thanks for the tip, This is great too know. I hope you like the video, Thanks for watching.
Yes very true my pro hawk runs better with 93 it always make me smile 😊
Forget the hawk let’s do a review on that cool 944/or 924 in your garage. Best part of motorcycles are the eight dollar fillups!
Nothing better than twisting some throttle😎.
Don’t wear black when you ride wear colors make sure you’re scene.
Thanks for noticing the 944 in the garage, here is the link to my playlist about this car:
th-cam.com/play/PL5T8p9N7V605zSOVf4eEwxSW4jClfk-jc.html
Thank you for the tips on riding motorcycles I totally agree with you. Wearing bright colors is a great idea so that you are seen. Thanks so much for watching.
Hey Hanz would you think this bike would too small for someone like me i am 6’3 and I had bought a dirt bike and didn’t realize how small they are for my size at least
This bike would actually be a great bike for somebody that is 6' 3" I am 5'7" and the bike is very tall for me to ride. I wish it was lower so I could get my feet on the ground that's why I think it would be good for somebody taller.
@@hanzdidit thank you very much
Does the EFI get better fuel economy than the carb version?
I never tested it but I would imagine that yes it probably does because it is more efficient. Thanks for watching I hope you like the video.
It's beautiful out there.
Thank you so much, I love where I live. Thank you so much for watching.
I lowered the mono shock and lowered the forks couple of inches
Sorry for the late reply. That is a great idea I did not even think about lowering the front shocks. Thank you so much for watching.
Whats the top speed on this jewel? I weigh 175lbs just curious Im getting a Tenere 700 in November but this could be my cheap xtra for the wife to ride n practice on😅 Thanks brother great video
Going downhill with a little tailwind you could get this up to about 70 mph but it does take a while. There are sprockets that you can change out to make it go faster but you lose a little bit of the low end power. Thanks so much for watching.
do you have link to where you can purchase a speedometer like yours?
I do not have a link for the speedometer that I am using but it is easy to go to the App Store or Google play to get a GPS speedometer app.
I had to drill holes for my plate.. I have 20 miles on mine now. So far the only problem is the fuel gage doesn't work
That's a bummer about your fuel gauge. You should contact the seller and see if they can send you a new cluster. I hope you like the video, thank you so much for watching.
Do you think it would handle better if you put street tires on it??? supermoto style
The tires on this bike are great for on road and trail riding if you are only writing on the road then yes I think a super Moto tire would be great. Thank you so much for watching.
you can cut some foam off the seat to lower
Sorry for the late reply. I would definitely do this I'm just not very good at upholstery. I could take it to a shop and have it done but I think there might be other ways like you said to lower the front shocks would be a good option. Thanks again for watching.
Had me at the grim “ they’re all potential murdererss ☠️ “ 😂
Thanks for watching.
I grew up in Central Oregon 😊
It is a great place to live, thank you so much for watching.
Do you still like it? I just stumbled on this and I’m thinking this could be a great first bike for me. I’m in the trail bike market.
Sorry for the late reply. Yes I think this is a great trail bike. Depending on how tall you are in your experience I may be able to help you further. If this is your first bike and you are tall enough to ride it is a great bike. So far I have no complaints and have had a lot of great luck with it. Thanks so much for watching.
@@hanzdidit I’m about 6’2” with my shoes on and I’ve taken a few dirt bikes for a spin when I was younger once on a new Kawasaki 250 that I couldn’t keep the nose down on and rented a 250 Ninja when I was 16 that I laid down twice because I couldn’t turn well and hit the front brake both times. I’m 45 years old and suddenly find myself wanting an endurobike like I have wanted since I was 14 years old. My neighbor when I was growing up lost his leg in a MC accident, my good friend was killed last year in one, and someone randomly told me yesterday that he just totaled his bike when someone pulled out in front of him, but all on powerful bikes.
So anyway here I am wanting this somewhat meager bike, but I don’t intend on trying to jump it, race it or bring it on the freeway. In case I really don’t want it $2000 or so dollars seems worth while. I can turn wrenches so I’m always willing to do that to an extent save money. My wife is very supportive. My friends not so much.
I mainly want it to save wear on tear on my truck to commute to the park and ride bus stop (I live in a big traffic clogged city) and for having enjoyable ride in the open air in the back country.
I know I wrote a novel lol but thanks for reading!
How did you get a plate on it? Did you have to get it registered?
When you get the bike you will get a certificate of origin, you just have to take that to the DMV and pay the import tax and you can get plates.
Can it go in water?
What a beautiful area. Where is this?
I live in Oregon. Thanks for watching.
So do you need to register it to put it on the road? How does that work?
When you buy it they will send you a certificate of origin. You go to your state website and pay the import tax which is usually about $16. Take that certificate with the tax receipt to the DMV and you should be able to get tags and plates the same day.
@@hanzdidit ok. Thank you
you had me until the quieter part, I'm gonna put a huge exhaust on mine once I order it lmao
I hope you like the video and thanks for watching.
@@hanzdidit no problem! and thank you for such a great review! I looking into buying the bike
Will the fuel system handle ethanol mixed fuel?
I am not sure , I would think so but you should ask the seller of the motorcycle because i have not tried it. Thanks for watching.
Where is the fuel valve I have a 2021 efi and can't find it
It should be right underneath the gas tank, I did notice that the newer bike that I have did not have a fuel shut off so yours may not. Hopefully this is helpful thank you so much for watching.
@@hanzdidit u called some company they said it doesn't thank you
Did you put together or did you get a mechanic? If you put it together, did you do a video?
I Did it my self th-cam.com/video/ojzfl3XTjZ0/w-d-xo.html
DLX th-cam.com/video/ab4QX93iYl0/w-d-xo.html
this is gonna be my first bike but i am 5’6, do you think im too short for this bike? should i just get a different bike?
If you do not need to go off-road I would recommend the KPM, I did modify mine with some Enduro tires so it does great off-road if you want to check that out.
th-cam.com/video/nncjmzCzfS8/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for watching and I hope you like the video.
Im 5’2 but I still wanna ride this one. Any suggestions?
Am a 5.6 tall do you think can I fit on that motorcycle?
Yes you should not have any problem. It's a little bit taller but it's nice to have a clearance when you're off road.
What type of fuel is needed if I purchased this bike
Despite this bike uses regular gasoline, I usually get the highest grade that I can when I buy it because it's so cheap to ride. Thanks so much for watching.
Can it be lowered?
I am still working on that, but I will let you know if I figure out a good way to do it.
The carb version is not as big a deal as you are making it out. Problem with the EFI version is when it starts throwing codes......... Good luck with that. Squrrielly in the corners is more about the tires than anything else. The accuracy of the speedo on a China bike is generally not close. As much as 10% off. They always indicate you are going faster than you really are.
Thanks for the input, I hope you like the video thanks for watching.
@@hanzdidit I've been into China bikes going on 4 years now. I think they are a fantastic value but they do have some concerns. Some of the components should be upgraded right away. The chain is often an issue, tires if you are riding off road much, and the speedo is always off. And I do like just about any video on this topic. You have obvious passion for your Hawk, and it seems to me you have good expectations for yours. There is definitely a difference between a $2K China bike compared to a $6 - $8K Japanese bike. But, with both, you do break or wear out parts, and there is always maintenance. Difference with China bikes it that it can be hard to find someone to work on them, so you should expect to do maintenance on your own. Most shops won't touch them. Thanks for the video......
@@jcx5659 I remember at one point nobody wanted to work on Japanese bikes a long time ago.
@@wesleymills2641 So do I.
What size gas tank.
It is just over 1 gallon, thanks for watching.
3.7 gallons
I just bought this bike, same color, (from TxPowerSports) it is being delivered Tuesday, 6/14/22. My plan, before even starting it, is to change the oil and the spark plug. I plan to then thread-lock everything. Any other first day tips?
I think you have a good plan, but if it was me I would get it out of the box, change the oil put gas in it and start it up and go for a ride. You can worry about all that other stuff later. Have fun with that bike you're gonna have a great time. Thank you so much for watching.
@@hanzdidit Thanks. I bought it assembled and pre-tested - not because I was worried I could not do it myself, but could afford it and wanted that quick ride. Love your channel. Keep making videos!
Just ordered one of these and a Trailmaster 110cc assembled from the same seller, and they should be here this week as well. I watched videos and read up on these before purchasing and already have Rotella T4 15w40 and 20w Fork Oil to put in them when they arrive.
Where is the fuel valve I have a 2021 efi and can't find it
@@Alias333 You are not alone. I got mine on Wednesday, could not find it either. Googled it... found nothing. Perhaps because it is an EFI, there is none?
What's the top speed on this?
I have had it up to about 70mph, Took a while to get there but I made it lol.
What gas do you run ? 93??
I always run the highest octane I can get. I'm sure it would run fine on regular but it would be a cleaner burn with a higher octane. I hope you like the video and thank you so much for watching.
@@hanzdidit thinks 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
Can you ride this on the highway?
Yes you can but your top speed will be about 65 miles an hour and that is a little scary on the highway and that's all you have. I personally do not ride mine on the highway. The nice thing about a larger cc engine is if you need to you can get out of the way by accelerating. This bike at 65 miles an hour there is nothing left. It is a great commuter for off-road or around town but that's what it's meant for.
@@hanzdidit is there another size up or dirt bike with higher cc's that can get over 100 mph that you can recommend where I can ride on the highway
Whats up buddy my bf wants one realy bad
For the price you cannot beat them, there's a super fun bike for a 250cc. If you ask me they're worth every penny. I think Amazon even offers financing. Good luck I hope that your BF can get one. Thanks so much for watching.
Don’t take it off jumps😳
At least not anything too big, so far it's handled everything I have thrown at it, I have even dropped it a couple times and have not had any problems. Overall pretty happy with this bike. Thanks so much for watching.
@@hanzdidit thanks for the review. Do you know if parts are available for it?
Buddy you just don't get it the other one you have to work on more. If you have to work on it you have a better knowledge of your bike which is better! Fuel-injected makes you lazy! All vehicles being built today not the normal person cannot work on them and that's a problem!
Copy that. I have had both the carbureted in the EIF version of this bike. I like them the same I just think the DLX has a better suspension.
? 7,000 RPM at 52 miles per hour? And your in 5th gear??. What a POS bike
Thank you so much for your input. This bike may not be for you but it is a great bike to learn on.
I mean the bike is 2000 brand new and a 229cc idk what u were expecting
You can simply change sprockets to get more tip end. It’s clearly geared right in the sweet spot to make it barely work off and on road. For 230cc…. I think you’ll find nothing else that would do both any better. If you want the look but more on road prowess. Lengthen the gear ratio with larger rear sprockets and if you want it just to learn dirt… shorten the ratio smaller rear sprockets…
May I get your email to talk with you
Sure, It is: hanzdidit@gmail.com
