I work with AD Boivin and we trail ride the Hawks all the time and we have an absolute blast! The older versions of the Hawks were alot more difficult to control, especially in the trails, but the 2005 and most certainly the upcoming 2006 are awesome trail sleds! Look out for these trail features on the 2006 sport trail edition: rear suspension is height-adjustable (2-inches), the ski adaptor on the bottom of the front forks gives a 6-inch incline, instead of two, which makes the Hawk alot easier to control in tight turns and on hard-packed trail conditions, etc. If you order the Outlaw, you can ask your dealer to update the rear suspension making it height adjustable (not difficult to do). We have a snow tracker device on the bottom of the twin-axis ski that is a safety feature for icy conditions and hard packed snow. The twin-axis allows the rider to boondock and lay the Hawk down while the ski remains almost flat on the ground.. you can also add our stud kit to give yourself even more traction. All this being said, with the most recent version of the Hawk (or an older with these added features), you won't go wrong with a Hawk for the trails!! Give us a call if you need more info.
*Attached you will see the Sport Trail edition in action!
Any change you can attach those pics once again. Seems like one of the pics is only half done
