Shark attack!!!
Well after way to much time looking at China bikes on various sites and watching more YouTube vids than I'll ever admit to I just pulled the trigger and ordered a Bashan Shark.
I promise to take lots of pics when it gets here. Robb |

Congrats! It looks like the Enforcer, for the most part, and while the Enforcer is said to be the Hawk, but 'upgraded', the Shark seems to be an upgrade to the Enforcer. It has the digital dash and, what should be standard by now on every Chinese enduro--a rack, as well as the more streetable tires (an upgrade, in my book, over the rugged knobbies). Plus, you won't have to guess as to what engine (counterbalanced or not) you are getting as our Enforcer guinea pigs had to!
Where did you order it from, and why and what made you choose it over the Brozz?

The only upgrade the Enforcer has over the Hawk is the registration issues with some states.The problem with the carb is that is sealed and I think that the Hawk has better brakes.All in all it's an exciting time to be a chinariders member it's only gonna get better from here.We are a special breed,taking bets on chinese made motorcycles.I feel special riding it because they are still rare aound here in NJ.

First, congrats. I'm sure we are all eagerly anticipating pics and a review.
Second, I was wondering the same thing. The only place I saw online that has them is powerrideoutlet and they list $2500 as the price. |

Where did you find the USD forks and Triple Tree?
I am wanting to upgrade our Bashan over to USD Forks one of these days and the only place I can find it (CSC) wants almost $300 per fork and another arm and leg for the Triple Tree and shipping charges on top of everything else. Thanks for joining us! Can't wait to see pics of your Shark
