Hi @Skyd,

Welcome to MotoVlog.com.
Where are you from? What do you ride? Say hello, what do you like? Why are you here?

Got a photo of your bike?

Hey everyone! So I've been riding since I was 13, mostly dirt bikes and dual sports but I've had a few other bikes as well. I do have a youtube channel it's very small but I have fun making videos and I'm gonna dabble with Moto Vlogging very soon. Thought this would be a great resource.

I just picked myself up a Chinese Dual Sport, my first like this and I'm actually mildly impressed with it's build quality. It's not my DRZ but not bad. I'm making mods and upgrades and just got it registered so it'll hit the roads and trails soon.

I live in the White Mountains of NH and there's some beautiful scenery and great riding around here, although it can be tough to find legal off road riding at times.

Hi and welcome @Skyd what is the details of the new bike? Am guessing you have had to assemble it yourself looking at the photo? :) From what I gather, the Chinese bikes are getting better and better, and seem great value for money! :)

Welcome. That is a corner of the country I don't know much about. Buy I love good dirtbike and dualsport vids! Can't wait to see what you can do. Don't worry about the size of your channel. Mine is tiny, but I have fun and enjoy making vids.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys, this is a beautiful part of the country in my opinion, I love it here, I just wish there was more legal places for trail bikes. We have 1000's of miles of snowmobile trails almost all are closed to Wheeled vehicle travel.

The bike is a 2020 RPS Hawk 250. It's a clone of a Honda CG style engine, so it's push rod. It's mostly assembled, you have to put on some of the plastic, front tire, handlebars, stuff like that. Then it's a good idea to go over the bike they're known for having the occasional loose bolt and such. But if you put in a little effort up front, and keep up on maintenance it's a great way to get alot of fun per dollar.

So far I've swapped the head gasket for higher compression, flushed my brake fluid, set the valves, installed a Pumper carb, and a few other small things. I've got chain and sprockets sitting here to go on as well. Fat bars on the way, digital dash, plenty of tinkering to do, but I'm ready to get riding once this rain takes a hike.
