If this is a 250 cc why 50 mph

  • Answer:

The gearing ratio is very low. Good for torque. If you want higher top speed, buy a smaller rear sprocket. I would recommend a drop to a 40-45, the drop of torque isn’t uncomfortable but it adds a good amount of top end, cruising becomes 60-70 mph.

uggested upgrades

  • Cylinder head porting
  • Replacing spark plug with an NGK Iridium plug
  • Oil cooler with custom CRF oil filter inline
  • 30-mm FAT bars
  • CNC Aluminum Alloy Back Rack
  • Cycra 1CYC-7408-12X Ultra ProBend CRM Handguards (view on Amazon)
  • Shift lever replacement – the stock shift lever looks funny and flimsy for some riders.
  • Custom S.S. muffler core – upgrading the exhaust requires adding washers to ensure some lateral clearance.
  • Seat height adjustment – some riders find the seat height a bit low (although still comfortable enough to allow maximum movement and ride.
  • Frame restoration – powder-coating the frame and engine housing (mostly for pre-owned Hawks or in the event of scratches acquired during the bike’s transit). I personally recommend UV-resistant paint as Chinese bike paint is known to fade rather quickly.
  • Carburetor upgrade to a Nibbi PE30 with 115/35 (main/slow) jetting or Keihin PE30/30-mm VM26 Mikuni (view on Amazon) with 125-130/38 (main/slow) jetting
