I have seen Vitaccis sold as Amigos. It's almost like a factory will pump out kits and then another factory will assemble and put different names on the same product for different distributors. I'm guessing it's all the same parts as the hawk. Powersportsmax has their own Hawk made. I think RPS is just a distributor. None of these companies make their own bikes accept maybe tao tao, baodiao, zongshen,dongfang, and lifan. I don't think you find out the real maker until you get the MCO for most of these "Brands".

It's a Bashan BSR250. It has the single piston hockey puck disk brake in the front. Not a Hawk but still a good bike.

Good catch, Jerryhawk! If you use the zoom feature on this dealer, you CAN seen 'BSR' which would indicate a Bashan bike. That and the smaller rear sprocket. Plus like what you caught, the single disc brake, which I wouldn't have caught. https://www.superiorpowersports.com/...b-raven-xl.htm

Stewbrash,
I’m thinking about purchasing the Raven. It’s on the NJ moto manufacture’s “approved” list. How many miles do you have on her? How do you like? Any info is MUCH appreciated. I’m also available at eight five six six four one two nine two two or lifeolemons at gmail. Thank you, Aldo ride4all |

Ride4all, I'm pretty sure the Bashan BSR 250 Raven is legal in all 49 States! We might just as well consider California as a country from now on! Read my posts on it and you'll see what I've done. It's really a good bike...for the money! i have about 250 miles on it now.

I can answer any questions you need about the Raven. I ordered the Hawk 250 at the same time two of my family members bought the Raven.
Key differences: Raven is much more quiet than Hawk. Raven has a much nicer seat than Hawk. Raven sits about 2 inches lower than my Hawk. Raven has more street ready tires and doesn't do as well as the Hawk offroad. Raven doesn't seem to have as much torque or low end power as Hawk. Raven doesn't have the burrito bar like the Hawk. No braided brake cables on Raven. Raven is a great bike though can't go wrong. |

The Hawk is geared much lower than the Braven and I'm 5'11" and the Braven is pretty dang tall! Mine has a burrito "tube" as I don't know what a burrito "bar" is. The brakes work just fine and my bike's acceleration is quite amazing! All without modifications! And just by looking at it you can see the WORLD-CLASS, AWARD WINNING AND ENGINEERING EXCELLENCE OF A BASHAN!
lol Too funny, just realized you (Hellbent) were talking about the 'burrito' handle-'bar'...aahh! Last edited by stewbrash; 07-16-2021 at 11:16 AM. |

The Amazing Raven..........
I have a 2020 Vitacci BSR Raven and let me tell you, this is one hell of a bike! It does excellent on city streets and pretty darn good off road too! It says 68 mph is top speed, but im 5'7", 160 pounds. I have made the speedometer max out several times. 140 km it reads wich is equivalent to 86 mph......STOCK!!!!! I bought mine from a dealership already assembled. Going that fast has it's cons because I felt like the wind was gonna blow me down because I felt like the bike is very light. All said, anyone looking for a bike that performs like a $7500 Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki, but costs $2400 brand spanking new, go get the Raven. ........My black and green raven should hopefully last me years to come. Heck, people still getting $2400 for 20 year old enduro bikes....facts!!!!!!

Hey Stew, man nice bike! Love the color. Quick question, did you order the handbrake covers or did yours come stock like that? Mine doesn't have that?

Yes Ferguson...the Bashan BSR is awesome, I just finished installing a new exhaust and it's getting close to the speed of sound!!! The Bark Busters you are asking about I got on Amazon for around $20. They were a little challenging installing them but they are solid aluminum bar-stock and the quality is awesome! You can see everything I've done by going here:http://www.chinariders.net/showthread.php?t=28936 Here is a pic of his liddle friend!
