That's a good point too, I've never seen these bikes IRL so I'm going on what I can find in pictures and videos. I could deal with a tall bike as long as it's not heavy, because otherwise I'll be picking it up from out of the dirt when I inevitably spill it.

The inverted forks are nice. I did get a Tusk folding greashift lever for it. The rack is strong and pretty wide. I really recomend this bike. Bashan has not changed it at all.
A seller in Kentucky used to have the Storm (Don Hopper?). Jeff at Peace Sports had the Bashan Recon and Brozz, but I don't think he sells them anymore. The Recon is NICE. These two bikes used to be essentially the same as the Storm, but Jeff had them outfitted with 18"/21" wheeles/tires. But they were not $1500 anymore, and unavalable now.

The Brozz was one that I looked into first, but it and the Bashan Recon are sold out basically everywhere.
I've only seen the Storm mentioned but never seen an in-depth look at it, so it's another added to the list. There are not a lot of dealers around where I am at who carry these types of bikes, so I would have to find one who ships to South Georgia.

Another to the list, I've never heard of this one. 5 speed with fuel injection and better parts makes it seem like it's a slightly better version from the Hawk EFI?

Thanks for the heads-up, I didn't know that about TXPS or who Manny even is. Which other dealerships are his? Is Venom an okay place to shop?
