Hawk 250 Review from Rob_HK250

The following hawk 250 review was submitted from a hawk 250 user I met on Instagram. Please follow him on Instagram @rob_hk250.

I saved up over eight months to buy a bike to ride around and have fun on. I found the hawk 250 through the help of my friend, we searched for two months online for the bike. He showed me the hawk 250 and asked if it was ok or fit my taste. I told him yes and I searched for videos of the hawk along with reviews. It came time to order my the bike.

Power sports max was really helpful with the bike and the shipping to NJ was fast. After the hawk 250 bike arrived my step father and I put it together to discover it did not want to start. How ever that was an easy fix with a new ignition coil and the battery being jumped the bike started with no problem. This bike is really easy to handle and can be really fun if you know what you are doing. If you like to work on your own bikes I would recommend this bike to you. If I had to rate this bike on a scale from 1\10 I would give it a 9.5.

MSR Black Steel Shift Lever Hawk 250

A few days ago I got the MSR black steel shift lever Hawk 250 in the mail while I was grilling some chicken wing. After the wings I went downstairs to my garage and installed the  MSR shift lever in a few minutes on the Hawk 250. It went on pretty easily without any issues. You need to remove the bolt before putting the shift lever on, or you will have trouble pushing it on the gear shaft.  If you would like to purchase this MSR shift lever for your hawk, click here or the image below (new window will open).

Remember to remove the bolt on the shift lever before putting it on, it will go on a lot smoother.

I didn’t compare it with the stock hawk 250 shift lever but it looks longer and 100% times better. I will take some pictures later and update this post. The model number for the MSR black steel shift lever Hawk 250 is  07-0709.

My First Month Black Hawk 250 Down Video

Whats up guys, its not throwback Thursday but I was watching some of my videos and I found this funny video. This was maybe a month in of my having my hawk 250 bike. My blue hawk 250 cousin and I were just messing around, trying to do some burnouts and taking off quick. Well I took off to the sky when the clutch slipped and I panicked lol.

Give me a break, it was only a few weeks in and I was a noob lol. If you can see my cousins face while I’m going down, its priceless.

Hawk 250 Going Up and Then Going Down Video

The Hawk 250 Needed Some Repairs

There wasn’t major damage other then my back taillight breaking off and some scratches. My chain did get locked up in the rear sprocket and I couldn’t get it out and I didn’t have any tools on me ( That was the last time I took the hawk 250 out without my tool bag lol ) So I had to leave my cousin there to watch my hawk while I jumped on this blue hawk 250 to go home and get some wrenches.

At this point the bikes weren’t registered, we had no insurance and he was just sitting on the side of the road. Good thing these back roads were learned how to ride the hawks on has barely any cars driving by

I finally got back to him, got my chain loose and we went home to check the damages. With some power tools and 30 minutes later, the hawk 250 was back on the road looking meaner than she ever did haha

I have some pictures showing the damage somewhere on my computer, when I find it I will update this page.

Thanks for reading and I hope you are having fun with your hawk as much as I am..

Thanks to Brian L for This Hawk 250 Skid Plate Suggestion With Install Pictures

Whats ups hawkers, I had a few people email me about the skid plate I have shown in the hawk 250 shop, I haven’t been able to purchase this item for my hawk yet, waiting for the budget to allow it. A very helpful user from our hawk facebook page was nice enough to take his skid plate setup off to show us some pictures of the setup and what you will need to do to make this work, this is a very simple modification.

Its not a direct bolt on, but as you can see its very easy to make it work and I’m sure there is 100 different ways to mount it and make it work, so if you don’t mind tinkering with your hawk then this should be very doable for you.

[fsbProduct asin=’B071L5MDF2′ size=’300′ align=’left’][fsbProduct asin=’B071VJ4NF2′ size=’300′ align=’center’]

I will also be doing a video and guide on the hawk 250 skid plate once I order it.  Below are all images from o Brian L from our Facebook Group, click here to join.

Specs on what you will need to mount the hawk 250 skid plate

Hardware. Two 1/4 by 2.5″ long bolts. One 1/4 by 1 3/4″ bolt. Some washers, lock washers or just use nyloc nuts on all 3 bolts.

Orange washers in pic come with the skid plate hardware.

Brackets are 1″ aluminum. 1/4″ thick so it wouldn’t bend when tightened down. Front bracket is 6.5″ long. Back is 4.25″ long. Aluminum bar stock should be available at virtually any hardware store as well as all bolts. Mine was scrap I had laying around so Used what I had.

Slightly bigger than 1/4″ holes drilled in front bar. Holes are 2 1/8″ apart from center to center of hole.

Bolts pass through the skid plate and bracket with the frame sandwiched in between.

Back bracket rests in small v section under frame and merely tightened up the bolt until skid plate didn’t move anymore.

Removal was a lot easier than I expected. Merely removed front bolts and bracket and slid plate forward until back bracket slid off the V section under the frame. Took longer to move bike away from my bench and get tools out than removing the plate.

Hawk 250 – How to Hack the Turn Signal Beep

Thank you so much MotoCheez YouTube Channel for this hack for the Hawk 250 RPS dirt bike. That noise when you used your turn signals was painful to listen too. Now the issue I have is forgetting to turn them off because I don’t hear the beeping anymore haha. Another great video done by MotoCheez, please like and share the video if you did this to your hawk 250.

Hawk 250 Fan Shop Clothing Gear

What’s up fellow hawk 250 owners and future hawk 250 owners. I wanted to make some clothing with my hawk 250 logo and possibly using images of the hawk 250 but I don’t have any high quality images of the bikes, my hawks are bit too dirty for using to get high quality pictures. So for now I’m just using the hawk 250 logo from my website.

Currently I’m using Zazzle to create these products, if you know another company that is good but maybe has lower prices, then please let me know.  Zazzle is more on the high price but I hear the quality is good. If you purchase any of the items below, contact me when you get them to make sure everything is OK or if I need to go kick some ass at Zazzle lol. Thank you for your support and for visiting my website and I hope you enjoy the content on the hawk 250.

It’s going to be a year in November since I got my hawk 250 and it has been fun building this blog and sharing my friends and I adventures with the hawk 250 dual sport bikes.

If you would like to read my post on all the hawk 250 upgrades I did on my bike, read this post Hawk 250 RPS Performance Upgrades and if you have any questions, feel free to contact me via email or social media.

Just Some Quick Backyard Fun with Hawk 250 Dual Sport

Short post, I was busy working on my gazebo project for the last few weeks but I missed the hawk 250 and had to take it out, this is my off road hawk and it needs some work, I didn’t check the chain and it was loose and when I hit the log the chain came off, it was a quick fix and up the hill I went.  Once I have time to clean up my yard, I will have some nice trail to ride around my house. Check the short youtube video below of my hawk 250 in action and please like and share the video. I’m trying to hit that 1000 subscribers on YouTube so they start paying me pennies again lol.

Upgrade to to Hawk 250 Shop to Include eBay Links and Price Compare

Whats up hawk owners, I did some upgrading to the store, when you go to Hawk250.com/shop/ and click on any of the products. On the top you will see the Amazon price and if its in stock. On the bottom you will see the eBay prices and if its in stock. Just compare the amazon and ebay item to make sure its the same one and you are set, once in a while ebay puts in a item that might be different, so it just helps to double check. Here is a quick video I made showing how to find the eBay and Amazon Links
