the hawks are a lot of fun,feels like a dirtbike crossed with a jetski,but can corner like it runs on rails,very easy to drag a elbow cornering,they suck on slow twisty trails,and I dont enjoy running on hardpack,otherwise crazy fun..the bike kits look like silly toys compared to a hawk and...

come on guys have a little understanding this is a gold mine for the rcmp,all about the revenue...isint it easier to fine the albertan than your neighbor hauling hay..all the sleders are probably why they have more than the 2 cops needed in valemont, need to pay for them all somehow..tough...

I have a 95 xcr 440 my understanding is through the later 90's the chassis (suspension) progressed quite a bit,the best resource I have found for the xcr is the hcs forums xcr section ,quite a few xcr owners that seem to know a lot about them and their history..
