Good to have you Jonny! I am from Northeastern NM, and coming out for a green chile run soon-waiting for the late season xtra hot
I got a roaster in Trinidad a couple months ago
It will do a typical box, or close to half a gunny sack per load in 6to8 minutes. I can't wait!! Here is some from last year (Young guns late season extra hot). I am just now running out!
I have a Bashan Storm, which is a very close build to your Bashan Recon.
I have worked on those inverted forks and the carb. I replaced the throttle with a roller style throttle most recently. Valves are easy on this engine. Post your questions in the dual sport section. Lots of expertise here to assist.
