Dad's got one as an island bike and it's over 10k and been mechanically reliable (bunch of speedo cables until he gave up on those) . It was one of the original CSC TT250's when they were $1800. It's not going on 6-7 years old. Pretty cheap transportation for that price. Welds are all holding up with no visible cracks.

I am an enthusiast and also have Japanese bikes-the Hawk is not a Japanese bike, nor does it claim to be. It is a fun commuter/trail rider that is very reliable.

It's very common, including with japanese bikes, to scale up the size (e.g. 239cc sold as a 250). In fact, Polaris will actually understate the displacement (e.g. 450HO is actually 500cc). So, the number is just where the OEM wants to position the machine.

What Is Funny is All Japanese Bikes Are MADE in China Now Too. Hell Suzuki built a Huge Factory in China in 2007. Plus All Bikes Not Built in China All Use Parts From China since All these Companies are global companies. Hell Honda Had Lifan From China Making Some Honda Parts for them Ever since the 80's and they are considered one of the Best. U better Put down your Phone too Cause that was made in China too since All Apples and Even Samsung are since Samsung's cost too much too put together in Korea. Just Wait China is The Leader Now Just like Japan was in the 80's and 90's yet I remember Everyone Saying Cheap Japanese junk About their stuff in the late 70s and early 80s and Now its All the Most loved and collected stuff. China is Already Becoming Too expensive to Build stuff there and Companies Like Apple Are Setting up huge buildings sites in India. Lol You Think China Is Bad Wait until everything is Made in India or Some Shithole in Africa since All these companies are looking for places that they can set up shop Have people Work for ten cents a day and Countries that Have Little or No Regulations so they Can save Money on whatever Waste their factory makes since they can just dump it outside or in a river in places like India or parts of Africa.

Since you are a nube let me explain. The motorcycle manufacturers have ALLWAYS played fast and loose with actual displacement versus claimed displacement. Often they are not very close like yours 229 vrs. 250. THE WORST example that I know of was my 2006 Kymico 200cc schooter which had an actual displacement of 156cc. The only manufacturer that I know that doesn't do this is Harley Davdson.

Most bike manufactures round up regarding engine cc for marketing purposes. On one of my Italian bikes, the actual displacement is 1064cc but the graphics scheme shows it as an 1100. They could have called it a 1050 which would have been more honest but I'm sure someone decided 1100 would sell more bikes. Doubt any bike manufacturer out there uses actual displacement for marketing and graphics. Otherwise most would sound weird and random. Ducati sometimes rounds closer to the actual engine displacement but even then they'll round to numbers that graphically look better.

From a Mechanic's perspective. The Hawk 250 is a $1,500-$2,200 (depending on model) lookup Hawk 250 Enduro 10,000 review 15,00 mile review. People who actually know how to maintain, prep the bike and keep it in good shape. I had a 2008 Tao Tao Titan 150, Made it 8,400 ish miles. 2 grand for a known to be reliable Enduro. Sure made in China, so is my Holzfforma G660 that redlines at 15.6 K it's modified 106cc engine produces 8.4 HP. That beats my Husqvarna 372 XP, 592 XP, and my Stihl 027 super. And if your worried about a part failing/breaking on you. Just order Aftermarket Performance Parts. I haven't owned a Hawk myself, only ridden on one a couple of times.

Just bought my 4th “Cheap Chinese Moto en Paraguay” the Kenton Dakar 200. We have found them to be quite reliable over the long term - the Kenton GL 150 I bought in 2016 now has more than 20,000 miles on it as a daily driver since 2018. For the commuting that Paraguayans do they’re great. I’ve taken the GL 150 on longer trips wide open for hours. No problems except for when I broke the rear rack on a dirt road and had to find a welder one town back. Kenton claims 9001 certification at the factory and the quality control is pretty good but I have found some obvious design and assembly flaws. Even when you crash the bike does really well. You might not do well but the bike slides no problem.

I saw there are entire HAWK riding clubs in the Philippines, and so on. It almost looks like HAWK is the new Harley Davidson ; the bike everybody loves to work on because it's quirky and that is appealing to some. I think the Headlight Off is pretty cool if you're in the woods and want to ride low profile for whatever reason.

The number used in a model's designation is generally the displacement 'class' that the motorcycle fits into, it is rarely an indication of the motor's true displacement and has been that way since the dawn of motorcycling so no, 'DLX 250' is NOT false advertising.

Calling it a Hawk is a stretch. A Parakeet would be more accurate. Lol

That’s typical for model names and actual displacement to be different.

Seems all bikes are labeled 125, 250 350, 450, 600, 650 as an approx. size category so a buyer can tell if it is close to fitting the rider. All my bikes and 4 wheelers are marked with the engine size lower than the actual model or label I should say. Just seems a little less confusing, after all a few CC's don't really make a lot of difference for an average rider.

The headline is a bit bogus. If you take a country like India, motorcycles are everywhere, 20 million a year sales Hero was tied to Honda for a long time. Hero sponsors a golf tourney in the US, planned to offer products but never did. The US is an anomoly because Japanese companies maintain high margins with little low end competition. A motorcycle is maybe $1000 US in India. Watch a video from, say, Taiwan and cycles are everywhere. Big question is whether Gen Z will embrace motorcycles, maybe the faster ebikes, in a big way since they face real economic challenges. I've built 4 ebikes and the quality of Chinese motors (they are almost all Chinese) is always improving. This channel is casual, low key, quite informative.

Would it be possible for someone to look at the Manufacturer Certificate of Origin and see if a horsepower rating is listed?. Most MCOs I have seen for street bikes do. Reason I ask is I am a bit curious because of how Amazon lists the horsepower as: "Max Horsepower: 11.5/7000 Kw/r/m" These Honda CG engine clones do make very modest power, but 11.5 seems way low. I suspect it actually is 11.5 kilowatts which is a tick over 15 bhp. Thanks for the good work and I look forward to more videos on this.

This to people who have never rode a motorcycle on the street. I would suggest these to both learn to ride on the street and to find out if you even want to ride on the street on a motorcycle. You are naked out there on the street and nothing between you and the 4 thousand pound car next to you. I have see so many motorcycles sitting in people garage never being rode. And to tie up 5 grand into a motorcycle and then never ride it is a crime. But 2000 dollars isn't near as bad. So for a beginners bike I would recommend it.

You should get a CSCTT250 to compare it to. Same price, comes from an actual company with very good customer service (as opposed to random garbage Amazon seller). Probably similar build, but maybe better, the CSC is built by Zongshen.
