Bashan Storm 250 at St. Joe State Park (MO)

Gabet0wn · 10-13-2019, 08:50 PM

I bought a Bashan Storm 250 this week (from Fenton Powersports) and took it out to St. Joe State Park today with my son. He rode his Yamaha TTR125le. I'm really happy the Bashan so far!

St. Joe has a good variety of mixed terrain. The stock tires don't do well in the sand, but there's plenty of gravel trails around to stick to.

Thanks for all the good info on this site. I'm hoping to contribute as I put the Bashan through it's paces.

Hello and welcome! I've seen Fenton powersports ad on the Storm, pretty decent price for an already assembled bike. St Joe state park is a pretty cool place to ride, it's a beautiful area.

The guys at Fenton Powersports were great. It's only about 15 minutes from my house AND they have a service mechanic. Well worth the (little) extra price for an assembled bike IMO.

Amazon shift lever installed today, btw.
