Hello from Memphis TN

Just pulled the trigger on a Red Magician today with Q9 Pwr Spts. Excellent customer svc so far with them. Wanted the Hawk but my butt is too close to the ground. lol. Ready to get back to riding, missing it for 15 years.

Congrats on the purchase and welcome aboard! My butt is too far away from the ground to even ride the Magician, which is a shame because I really like how they look.

Thanks for the welcome Megadan. I plan on doing a short video of receipt and assembly so the forum can compare and keep track of any changes made to the bike each year these are mfg. If all goes well with it in a couple months my plan is to purchase another for my son. On a side note these clone engines do not scare me one bit. We race Karts in the southeast region and the Chinese clone has taken over Briggs purpose build "Animal" engine for kart racing. We turn these clones in the neighborhood of 6500- 6800 RPM at peak. Now this is after blueprinting it or builder preparing like cam, doing rod clearance to crank, carb jetting etc. and must pass a tech guideline when finished. One final note on the block itself is surprisingly enough the bore when checked at tear down is straight and has cast iron sleeve. Not sure about these bike clones but I would imagine done similar. sorry for the long email but I got wound up talking motors.
