Thinking about ordering a Hawk 250 (229). Have you had any issues with gas leaking from the gas cap? Looks like it comes with very aggresive dirt tires. How are these working out on the street? I would wear these out (bet they don't last too long), and then go with more of a dual sporty design. I was going to just buy a Bashon 200, but, I think i'll go for the slightly bigger 250. Also, the Bashon uses some hard to find bolt pattern on the rear sprocket. The Hawk uses a common front sprocket, and I bet the rear is also of a common design. I can get the 17 tooth front from Amazon. Or, I could go through Kiser Motorcycle in Kona, Hawaii. They are 125 miles away.

I know to change the oil, check all nuts and bolts and maybe use some locktight, etc on these. With the 16 tooth front, can the bike cruise all right at 50? I assume this bike uses just a cleanable screen as an oil filter?
