Yes, good vid.. Thanks for that. My 250 is winterized and on the float charger. Won't start in the cold. And I have never managed to start it with the kick-start., even when it was warm?
They sent me a new tank fairing after the paint all peeled off from the cap leak, but never got the fuel cap or new pipe replacement (heat shield bolt snapped it's feeble weld) I'm not concerned. I welded it back on and the shield covers my inept welding nicely. I guess the fuel cap isn't the issue. But the design is. I took it (in the camper) on vacation and it was really sweet to just hop on and blast around. I really love this thing And yes, I imagine a sprocket change is also in order. Was thinking of 40 - 42 though. Cheers for the updates!

John, my suggestion is to get a bike with a rear rack--not sure why the importer of Bashan decided to leave the racks seemingly to only one of their bikes, the '250'. However, if the price is right, I guess you could compensate with a backpack, but so many Chinese bikes came standard with a rack, it seemed like they were a given!?

That's all likely due to the slow jet size. If you could increase the size by two steps, it should start nicely in the cold and with the kicker.

Are you in the Plantation/Lauderhill area? Most beach municipal parking lots here in Florida have free parking spots for motorcycles, scooters, electric vehicles etc anything thats considered green. What model, brand, motor maker etc is your bike?

Fun vid! Impressive wheelie, too. I don't think my bike likes to lift the front end as easily.

Also, props on your Youtube name.

Does the Bashon 200 use a replaceable oil filter, or just a cleanable screen? I see a 3 hole little cover on the engine that might be an oil filter cover?

I'm sure riding in January is much more pleasant in Florida than Maine. Thanks for posting the video of palm trees and sunshine from the beach.
