Hawk or Bashan? Help me decide!
Hey, gang.
It has been quite a few years since I posted...7 or so to be exact. I'm thinking of picking up a dual sport to just have some fun on and ride around town. I see a lot of mention on the RPS Hawk and the Bashan Storm 250. I'm in the (south of) Phoenix, AZ area and there is a place in Mesa, AZ that usually carries the Bashan. I got a chance to sit on one and check it out up close. Didn't have time for a ride as I was just passing by. I see a lot of reviews on the RPS Hawk and was wondering how do the 2 compare? Has anyone tried both? Reason for your decision? I know the Bashan has rear drum breaks, so does anyone who owns one wish it didn't? What's the quality like on both? I don't mind turning wrenches, just don't wanna have to do so all the time. Had a couple of China bikes (Pag, Tank) and a South Korean bike (Hyosung -wish I had kept it!) in the past. Have had my Suzuki Bandit 1200 for the last 7.5 years, so just looking for a 2nd bike to fool around on. So, anything you care to offer will be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Nuff said and I can dig it! olds_cool63 |
