Thanks to all that contributed to my questions! Megadan had helped me as well, and thanks to him, he is a great guy!

So now I get to ride the ttr225, that I put a bunch of dollars into, and still don't know what extensive wear is on the inside. I should just kick myself in the rear, and should have bought a new bike, like what i got for the mrs. We ride the atvs, but now those will be for hunting. Talk about a money pit? boy howdy. We ride ski doo sleds, and they are not near the money pit as the atvs...BUT they depreciate, so I guess they are a money pit as well.

culcune · 04-30-2019, 08:08 PM

You will have a nice bike, for sure! It was supposed to get California certification, but I found out the other day when I called BMS that they are no longer certifying the bike--me and other 'Californians need not apply'. The couple who bought a pair of the CRP 250 have not been active lately, but they were the ones who chopped down one of the seats for the Mrs. The Mrs. did it herself and from the photos looked very professional, and she did feel it was still comfortable. Besides the Hawk-clone Bashan 'Enforcer', the CRP is the only other Bashan that comes with 21/18 wheels, which you were leaning towards. As far as depreciation; a few short years ago, Chinese bikes were very low cost--now, not as much, meaning the depreciation will be a little higher, but it seems the Bashans do seem to hold up well quality-wise, so depreciation is something you don't really need to worry about!

Hi again, The MN couple are on a website where they are building a v nose camper as kirkupnorth, Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers
or t n ttt for short (tnttt.com)I think that name is correct. He is a carpenter, and their project is really cool. Like mrs who chopped down the seat, yup, that is what I will try with my wife's favorite carving knife, or better yet, I'll let her do it. Californians need not apply, in our times, sounds a little racist against cali's, and we the people? As a firearms nut, cali's have so many restrictions and laws from guns, to....etc., and on and on. That is sad. Since my wife is from northern Cali, we watched the Oroville dam spillway remake, and became acquaintances with a pilot, that bikes in Idaho and other places, that covered the spillway rebuild extensively. And then watched Paradise burn to the ground. I appreciate the inputs on this website from many. It is unbelievable how much knowledge there is here, and how down to earth the people are.

Megadan · 04-30-2019, 11:48 PM

Hey, congrats on the purchase! I look forward to seeing your assembly, mods, and what you two think of it once completed. I am pretty sure you will both be quite happy with the CRP 250.

wedooit · 04-30-2019, 11:50 PM

Many thanks for you input megadan!!!!!!

wedooit · 05-02-2019, 10:37 AM

This motorcycle frolic with parts for the old and new, is cutting into my and our firearms budget. Lucky we are slammed with work! I still haven't been issued a ship date for the BMS.

ok, update from powersportsmax! I ordered on the 30th. They notified me of a tracking number and was shipped yesterday. So far, good service! This will be an anniversary present for the Mrs., so hopefully doesn't arrive damaged.

Azhule · 05-03-2019, 12:10 PM

You will notice most of these companies give good/outstanding/excellent service/communication up to the point the $$ is transferred and the motorcycle is shipped... after that you are left in the dark arguing with a 5 year old child

Can't wait to see some pics

wedooit · 05-03-2019, 12:56 PM

Just this morning I was arguing with my 15yo. Why do kids like to argue? The answer I want is either yes or no! "I know" is not an acceptable reply. I didn't argue much with my dad as I remember. He was right, take it or leave it. I will post on the bms250.

Congrats on the new bike! As someone who is new to this, could you explain why you chose this bike over say a Hawk and what the difference is? Thanks!

Now you just need to figure out how to mount a rifle to the handlebars.
