Not suggesting you buy one; someone on the comments on the above youtube video said he went home and ordered the CR250 after seeing it at a Mesa, AZ dealership in person. If you have time, and the guy responds which dealer, perhaps you can see one in person and compare it to your Hawk.

Edit: it is Advanti Auto in Mesa or Advanti Motorsports.

I just bought one of these Bashan 250 motorcycles last week. The dealer I bought it from set it up for me. The manual is vary sparse when it comes to information. This is my first actual motorcycle and I'm learning to ride on this. I got it back home from the dealership and noticed the gear information doesn't show up. It says in the manual it's supposed to be displayed on the righthand side. When I'm out riding the information doesn't show up. It shows at the top of the screen when I'm in Nuetral but it never displays any other gear. Is this normal or did the dealer not hook up something correctly?

Check the connections both at the engine and cluster to make sure they are locked in place. The connector at the engine is a 6 pin usually green connector located on the left side near the sprocket cover. With that said you did mention that the neutral light is working. That wire is in that same harness so could be in the cluster. Contact the dealer you bought it from and let them know about the issue.

I'm just glad it has a full power engine!

Much better than a half-powered engine!

I've got the issue with the gears not showing showing up taken care of. The headlight on this bike is very dim. I'm looking to get a replacement for it but not sure what bulb I need Or How to even get access to it so I can take it into a shop and ask. Does anyone here know what kind of bulb I'd need? Or at least how I can take the bike apart to get access to it?

I'd say this thing looks like an Aprilia Dorsoduro! Maybe not the best for off road but it'd make one hell of a commute bike. And DAMN it looks good!
Next we need fuel injection and water cooled engine!

It still shows up on Bashan's group EPA/DOT certificate, but not sure if any new ones will make their way here. It would be interesting with a liquid-cooled/FI engine like the fairly common and proven NC250 as found in the RX3 and several other bikes nowadays.
