Basic differences are.. alloy frame, chain drive, larger main jets, more BHP, brake calipers, livery (except the front mudguard)... nice bikes, i wish honda would have carried the alloy frame through to the revere and ntv...

Were the Hawk / Bros fitted with a centre stand?

the alloy frame was MUCH smaller though! the Hawk frame was that of the NSR250 I believe? I like Hawks, they're very pretty but for ridings sake Id have a revere any day! Shaft drive and big seat and tank, plus I think they still look really good actually.

Like the Revere good in the bends it would seem.

Like the Revere good in the bends it would seem. Certainly munches a few bigger looking bikes up on the bends and nearly comes to grief at 2'11". I thought at first Hawk had cut it too fine but the guy on the outside clearly assumes it's clear for him to cut in on the corner without needing to look |

Yea the Hawk came with a centerstand (won't fit a NTV)... Most have been taken off to allow for a custom pipe, looks and less weight...

I love his reasoning: "As Brits and Japanese share the strange habit of driving on the left side of the road grey importers in the UK mainly brought the Japanese Bros over." Yes....because a right hand drive version of a bike is so much easier on the british roads than a left hand drive...  (I can only think of 1 difference: the beam of the headlight) |
