Awesome video! Just fyi, the big bore kits don’t make it a 300cc. The kit that uses a 72mm piston makes it a true 250cc and the kit that uses the 74mm piston makes it about a 265cc. Still awesome mods to do!

[@rooseveltm2157]

I put the motocult tru250 bbk on my hawk. I ordered chinese 74.5mm kit and it did not fit in the engine case. I cant really compare and contrast between the stock 229cc and 250cc bbk because as soon as I got the bike I tore it down and hopped it up. Anyway, my point is for everyone out there, the 74.5mm kit will not fit the stock hawk.

[@jacobfulton5106]

@@rooseveltm2157 the Chinese kits have to be machined to fit.

[@TheViolatorinator]

The kit I got from the alt link he posted to aliexpress is 70mm bore, which when compared with the stock bore (67mm) and stroke (65mm) will give 250cc. 67x65 gives you 230cc and 70x65 gives you 250. What 72mm and 74mm bore kits are you talking about? Edit: checked the motocult tru250kit and it's a 70mm bore.

[@rooseveltm2157]

@@TheViolatorinator Edit: Sorry, it was a 72.5MM 350CC BIG BORE Cylinder Kit for CG250 CG 250 Upgrade kit...so even the "350cc bbk is 268cc. (.7854 x 72.5 x72.5 x 65) I got the 72.5mm kit from aliexpress and it did not fit. The 70mm was what I got at motocult (tru250). The cylinder was too big to fit in the stock engine case with a 72.5mm bbk.

Great video!! Interesting to see the two models compared. Just purchased a '23 DLX with the counterbalanced EFI version. Already been a blast just to tool around the city in -planning to trailer it up north to trails we ATV on to see how it handles rough stuff. Definitely agree with your closing statement -this thing was a great buy for the money bar none 😉

Thanks . bout to pull the trigger on a EFI.

thanks for making this video know i know what bike to choose

[@mototaco6603]

No problem 👍

I have a dlx, decently modified and tuned and 75 mph is pretty normal now. Awesome easy to work on bikes hopefully they come out with a liquid 300 or bigger

There are some coming out later this year, I have been told.

[@collinclark6086]

Great video. Been watching alk these Hawk videos sincle I got mine. In South Africa it ships stock with a 17t front sprocket, so it can do about 125kph, or 75mph from the dealership. Going to put a new exhaust on it, a 38t rear sprocket, and do the airbox mod to it soon. Thanks for all the tips and tricks with this bike.

Thank You SO much. My "Super Hawk 300" can do 80 MPH ! Made great friends at Austin Auto Machine. First had to trim the sleeve to 74mm. Slid the jug on the piston. OMG. Deck to piston top was -3.5mm. Had the bros' shave 2.5mm. off the jug. 105psi. I was able to run my Nibbi30 with .40/125 and get a tan spark plug. On MOPAC I did an honest radar speed of 80mph ! BANZAI !

Awesome man

[@user-yt1zn9sz5b]

A 4° advanced timing key and would add the much needed off idle response and torque to compliment the big bore kit and nibbi carburetor.The advanced timing usually introduces a bit more engine heat but the oil cooler would remove that extra heat.

[@ergr72]

[@datvik7187]

Nice video production

[@mototaco6603]

Appreciate it

[@billwiley7216]

The only drawback I have with the EFI is down the road how available will the fuel injector controller or ecm be and/or a replacement efi unit in case of failure. With the carbed version there are many carburetors that will work on this bike and the electrical requirements to operate the bike are pretty simple and inexpensive. Wish they offered a carbed model which had the inverted forks as that does seem to be a nice upgrade. No doubt EFI is nice as there is no choke to fool with and altitude changes are adjusted for but on such an simple bike it adds a lot of unneeded complexity. But both bikes are nice, perfect for me would be the modded 300 motor and electrics in the delux bike chassis!

[@mototaco6603]

carb version with the inverted forks i would soooooooo purchase

[@Charles-yv9wy]

​​@@mototaco6603 Buy the Brozz, and get the inverted forks, better rear swingarm, counterbalanced motor, and better seat, and nice digital cluster, and a carb. Also comes stock with 46/17 gearing.

Did you port the head, and install a timing advance key when you did the big bore kit ? I would think that porting the head would be a necessity, because they don't flow very well even with the stock 229 cc displacement.

[@mototaco6603]

ported heads is next, i dont think a timing advance is necessary

[@johnvolstad5870]

@@mototaco6603 The folks who build the ultra retro JANUS bike have their line of upgrade parts. Like a 296 lift cam. Flow improved cylinder head.

[@juniorhenderson7512]

Y R U running the incorrect stock speedo??? Get the Dige! OMG. I just wanted to thank you. My Hawk is running a 17/43. It is making so much power that I have to push DOWN to keep the front wheel on the ground ! 80 honest mph.

[@vince4984]

When you assembled it, did you have to adjust the valves?

[@mototaco6603]

Yeah but that’s not a big deal, set it to top dead center, use a leaf on a feeler gage for 0.003 thousandths of an inch, if it passes with a slight drag tighten them screws and you’re good to go. If not adjust as needed

[@ndopumunonamweemba6104]

Tuck In you riding position and reduce air drag.. My stock chinese bike says 90km/h in the manual but when I lean forward and tuck in moto gp style it goes to 110km/h am sure you can get to 130km/h (90mph)

[@joshlorusso3751]

I havent seen anyone get standed due to fuel injector, because most vehicles have multiple cylinders and can still run without a single one working. However i have seen people stranded due to electronic fuel pumps failing. Carbs all day, ecu(computer) can also fail. I just hate wiring, why would i want to make it more complicated?
