Well it is rideable but not done yet. I have not put any of my custom work into it yet except for the front fender. I took it out for a ride and it runs great. 9.3 klicks on it. More work to do tomorrow.

I really need to get this thing registered. It is a ton of fun to ride. I am very used to my Honda Shadow and this thing weighs about half as much and it's just crazy nimble.
I am sold! BTW, the speedometer is in KMs on the outside (big numbers) and MPH on the inside. At night, you can not see the MPH at all. No problem, I spent 5 years of my life in other countries and got very good at multiplying KPH by .62 to get MPH for our American cars. |

I live in Military housing. They had that there when I moved in. Thanks though!

Just received my Bashan Enforcer 250. Ordered it on Friday night 1/12. Came undamaged and I was very pleased with the communication from Safer Wholesale and Road Runner Transportation. I'm looking forward to assembling and lock tighting all the proper bolts as recommended. I'd say that the order would have hit their system on Monday 1/15, some weather delayed shipping for a day so these guys made good on their shipping promise of 15 days.

This is the easiest project ever. I think I'm about halfway done and I only worked on it for 90 minutes after work. What's the easiest way to lift the rear to install the rear shock by myself? Next is mounting the front and I'm done

I jacked up the bike, let the rear hang, and then lifted the rear tire to insert the bolt. Too easy.

I hope your planning on posting pics when you get it all together, It's been kinda quite around the forum and I need more bikes to look at!

easiest way is to lay bike on its side.

Another way to do it is to use a heavy duty ratchet strap and attached to a ceiling joist in your garage, shed or anything strong enough overhead and lift it that way. I personally used a floor jack.

I'm waiting for my son to come over today and lift it. That'll hit the easy button! This was like putting a model together when I was a kid. I'm usually working on my Porsche 968 race car so this has been nice and simple. I'll post up some pics when it's done. I'm in no hurry since it's 10 degrees in NJ!
