What’s up guys, short post today. I spent most of the day working on my hawks. If you are on instagram or Facebook and following me, you should see more of what I was doing in the hawk 250 to get ready for spring riding.
I had a few people email me about their hawk 250 sprocket failing off or being wobbly when riding.
I posted a short YouTube video earlier that shows what you need to pay attention to when changing your hawk 250 sprockets
Here are some pictures of my process to remove the hawk rear sprocket and my trick for removing that clamp if you don’t have the correct tools like me lol. I will also embed the video once I get on the computer
Thanks to one of our hawk 250 club members on Facebook, we found a K&N 33-2238 High Performance Replacement Air Filter that will fit on the hawk 250 dual sport rps bike. He sent me some pictures from facebook showing the filter in place and it looks good. I have attached is images to the bottom of the post.
I just placed my order from my hawk 250 amazon shop for the K&N Hawk 250 Filter and some other goodies I needed. Click the image below to be taken to the buy now page for this K&N Hawk 250 Model 33-2238 Air Filter.( Links will open in a new window, prices showing in images below might be different from the date I purchased them)
Here are some pictures from the Facebook hawk 250 members sent in. When I get my hawk 250 k&n air filter, I will do another post showing the install process and do a quick video.
I found this Gotham Mountain MX Trails that are about 15 minutes from my house. I have been waiting for one of my buddies to have a free day off work so we can go and check this out. Its open on the weekends and it was $40 to get in for the day. They have a few different trails you can rip around. They also have a MX track which we didn’t go on.
We actually only spent maybe 45 minutes in there and had to leave because the red Hawk 250 dual sport wasn’t feeling the rough terrain =). I will need to come back by myself or someone else with more balls to hit these trails and see what the hawk 250 dual sports can do.
We did the same lap 2 times because the first time my phone fell off and we had to go back to find it. I was having a good time and the trails were getting easier but my buddy wasn’t feeling it so we just hit the streets for the rest of the day. I will upload a second video of us riding the hawks in the streets and still having a good time. This is why I love these hawk 250 dual sport bikes, we can easily switch from off-roading and back to the streets.
Checkout the short video below of our 2 laps on the Gotham Mountain MX trails!
Here are some pictures from the start of the day getting the hawk 250 ready for the trails. We had to do a quick carb jet upgraded on the new red hawk 250, it took about 10 minutes and we were ready to go.

Another rider has sent in their custom hawk 250 review by Jayson w. He did a nice paint job on the original green hawk 250.
“My hawk was originally green but I decided I wanted a orange bike so I grabbed some orange spray paint and painted it and this I my final product with all my accessories. I put hand guards on then hand guard mirrors, also KTM tail bag, new chain, I plastic dipped the rims black and I also put black spoke covers and KTM decals.”
Whats up hawk 250 riders. I found a online website to help with shirts and different clothing merchandise. For me to order bunch of different sizes and colors, I would go bankrupt. So this is much easier I think and you get to customize the product anyway you like. Click here to order a shirt.
This video shows how you can edit any product to move the logo around or resize it before you make a purchase.
If you purchase a shirt from my website, please email me and share your pictures.
