Really like your bike! Very nice lines! This is yet another version of a well-built Hondoid I wish were legal here in CA.

That rack is the same one I have on my X-moto and it's BY FAR the best and sturdiest motorcycle rack I've used on any motorcycle I've ever owned. I strap a black plastic milk crate (has to match, right?) to mine and it can haul tons of stuff. I've even strapped a 36er of beer to it and the beer arrived unscathed. Lots of tie-off spots. Very well thought out.

I ordered black too! I guess I'm happy with the blue though.

75 degrees out and I have the day off today... Time for a ride out to the beach!

Me neither Weld. I have two Hondoids now and as excellent and reliable as they are, they can be like riding an ultrasonic unit. My new Rhino is way more buzzy than my X-Moto. I figure it has to do with more plastic body parts. I'd sure like to try a counter balanced unit someday.

Enjoy the ride today toadstepper!

Great looking bike!

Beautiful job, may I ask where you purchased it? That's exactly what I want!

I'm her buiilt-in mechanic!...so of course, I'll need the keys! ;-)
Back to my comment though, the non-counter balanced motors DO smooth out after they break in. It's the first 500 miles or so they buzz like heck, especially the first 200 or so....at least mine have. After that, I think both the motors and myself, calm down a bit.

Spent a bunch of time in these forums and think I answered my own question. Any reason I shouldn't buy one from here: https://www.powerrideoutlet.com/dirt...50cc-bike.html

I've recently been researching this too. You may want to check out Superior Powersports here:

I think they have a lower price. I'm thinking about buying one from them for my wife.

Power Ride Motor Sports

I have heard good customer service from Power Ride Outlet, but I called them today and they said they are out of stock and not getting stock in for the Bashan Storm 250 for a couple of months yet. There might be other vendors in the States that has one. I am pretty sure that Motobuys.com has them, but I have heard bad things about dealing with them.

Just some FYI
