I am 5’7 with a 30 inch inseam leg length and I have been looking for a dual sport motorcycle in that price range for a long time. I like that it has both kick and electric start. I’m going to follow along on your upcoming videos of this motorcycle because you have my interest on high on this one.

@Mikefestiva Жыл бұрын
I sent them the exact same email asking to change it and I got an email sent back that was something like “thanks for emailing us we sent your MSO out, you should receive it soon.” They never addressed my question if they could please make sure my MSO said dual purpose or motorcycle. I think it comes down to the person actually reading your email and caring enough to help, sounds like you got something that actually was willing to do it. Thanks for commenting 👍 I will pass this info on to others.

I have the Hawk 150 and it’s a well made machine. Sure a number of parts are cast aluminum and not forged or billet, but they’re also beefier to make up for it. I’ve had mine for a couple years now and love it. It’s even taken a couple lay downs well with no issues. I had no issues getting the OHM registration from our DMV and was all good!

Nice compared to the older bikes. I bought a 200cc dual sport about 15 years ago for like $800.00 out the door from a dealer in Southern California. Company went out of business a few years later because the bikes didn't pass emissions - the initial emissions certificate was rescinded by the State of California. I was permitted to continue to register the bike. Sold the bike a few years later for $1100.00.

The gas tank was leaking, so being the weekend I sent an email complaining then I JB Welded the seam to stop the leak. I am hoping to get a new tank before Christmas but it is not leaking now, so I drove it around for a couple minutes. Runs well, but back tail lights aren't working, so I got to get a wiring diagram to figure that out. Well it's hid in shed until Christmas now

To be fair, some of the Chineseium that I've seen recently, Kove 450 Rally, have a lot of things like those foot pegs that you mentioned. They didn't have to make it that nice, but they did. The Kove 450 Rally covered in a ton of little touches where they definitely made it nicer than they had to especially considering the $$. Fun vid!

Lot of fun for the price! I had an older 110 (or maybe it was a 107, can't remember) back in the day and man, the engine and trans was GOOD on it, just oil changes! Overall build quality back then wasn't the best, but man did I have fun on that thing and it received quite a bit of abuse! 😆 These bikes are perfect to introducing people to the sport of riding and just having fun, best part is, you didn't spend a lot to buy in. There is nothing worse than dropping $5-8k on a bike big only for it to collect dust.

I never tried to mount the shock on that other location, it just looked like a second mount, when I made the video I remembered someone In another video mentioning it was a second shock mount, maybe it isn’t? Or will require some mods to mount it? So far I have really enjoyed my Storm 150, fun simple bike 😊👍 Have fun on yours!

Can we buy indian TVS bikes in the UK? I rode over 100 miles on a old 160cc in india . It only did 50 mph but was great on economy and reliable.

Merry Christmas Mike! Congratulations on the new bike, nothing like that feeling you get with a new machine. I believe the main reasons those bikes are listed as off road use only are to avoid emissions, and the plastic fuel tank. Street legal bikes are required to have steel tanks in the US. Brrraaaaap!

Mike- Storm DLX250 - I have 2 emails from X Pro saying the bike is not net/curb weight 176 lbs...but 213 lbs ( yes I know it is close to the 215 shipping eight but went thru all the details with Winnie in China and she reports she even contacted manufacturer. ) As your time allows please educate us on the bikes real weight. Love your videos and delivery. thank you!

So did it have a federal safety label on neck, or did it also say for offroad only use on the neck as well? Down here in cali we can't registered new dirt bikes unless they say they confirm to bla bla bla. I've really wanted a 125cc dual sport , that's the closet I've seen so far, there is one company that is suppose to come out with one in california tho.

If you ask XR nicely, when you order, they will send you a new MCO that says motorcycle. That way you don’t have to go get an inspection. They sent mine out before I even got my bike so that I could go get my plates and be ready to ride. I’ve been extremely impressed with the company so far. If the bike is half, I will be very happy.

They are good about getting replacement parts, but I called and emailed them about the MCO and I didn’t have the same experience, they send me a vague email that wasn’t very helpful. But that’s great you had a better experience with them. All and all both bikes I ordered from them turned out to be great 👍 time will tell but I think they will hold up for a long time. Thanks for the info, this could help out others buying a Moto for that company.

@@Mikefestiva I ordered through Amazon thinking that would give me slightly more recourse than going direct. I also made my request through the Amazon messaging system, I wonder if that was the difference? My corrected title did actually arrive via UPS the day before my bike arrived. hey, I don’t suppose you know anything about the oil filter they mentioned in the owners manual they gave me? It does not give a location, and I have not found a single KZbinr that mentions it. There’s a few things like that that have almost motivated me to make my own channel when I figure them out!

Can not believe how easy it is where you live to get one of these approved for on road use! Here in Australia you would have no chance. If the bike does not get sold fully complianced by the manufacturer to meet all rules including dual ABS and emissions etc you can't ever register it. Crazy.
@Mikefestiva
@Mikefestiva Жыл бұрын
Man yes they seem crazy strict about that! It was pretty simple to get it approved here, at least in Washington state, there are other states that are even more relaxed about it, but again there’s others that are really strict. My mini truck in legal roads in Washington state but the bordering states of Idaho and Oregon they are not road legal? It’s odd.
