Powersportsmax the decider
Took me a few weeks before I decided to take a chance and order a bike from the internet. The anticipation of not knowing for sure if it was legit or not was enough to sway my mood for days. Often wondering if I'd ever see the bike I had ordered after reading pages and pages of bad reviews for just about every site. I went with PSM. Ordered my bike and got it within 1 week. Cool. Sent for my MSO 2 days afterwards because life and all. Now I'm on the edge of my seat again.....will the MSO ever show...will it take 7-10 days....1-2 months......6-8 months.....1 year.....never......

Seems to take a month for some--some get them sooner

Well, he gets verbal, and more importantly EMAIL assurance that the Hawk is legal in New Jersey, and this was the time that they still had the Brozz available. In spite of us telling him not to, he goes ahead and orders feeling the emails are good evidence (which they are) in case nothing can be done. Well, they had the bike shipped literally the same or early the next day, and the MCO and bill of sale within a week!? Of course, he is still dealing with that mess since the bike is not legal, and there is no way around NJ's strict laws, but it seemed awfully 'convenient' that they got the bike and paperwork on the express plane--er, rocket ship, seemingly in the case that they probably knew they would have problems (yet still shipped the darn thing!!).

Regarding rwl's incident, there's little doubt in my mind that other than obviously CA, the "bank of part-time college students" who take the orders via phone and email really don't know what's legal to be sold where, when. If they're lucky, they may have an outdated list hanging from a stick pin in every cubicle. States change their laws and moods like my X-wife. Are some of thee places shady? Of course....but I also can't help but think that most of these outfits would try to refrain from knowingly creating a huge mess that will cost themselves $$$ in shipping and lost future business. My guess would be is that most of these problems we experience here (other than shipping damage) is from either lack of knowledge on their part, or being completely overwhelmed in orders and woefully understaffed. Again, I'm not defending what may appear as "scoundrels and thieves in the night"....but I've been in similar businesses and not every day, week or month can be perfect. Like I've said before about my Rhino, ordered it from SPS. Showed up sooner than was expected, as did the paperwork. I must have gotten lucky on a good week.

2 months and still waiting
 Although it was posted out.. it vanished on April 12th No one seems to care.. I got 3 month warranty and can't use itThese people are pretty useless if you need help. They hang up the phone and when you do get someone, they are totally not cut out for customer service work. I said I would like to know what would happen if it didn't show up, what the procedure is. the answer was "I don't know... maybe you wrote down the wrong address" Useless!. Truck driver found me OK though.. and USPS find me every day. Never again, and I advise you to go elsewhere. I will try getting a "lost" title at my own expense. Misery for me.

Well im late as usual. MSO literally came the next day. Plated no problems. Overall id rather PSM B- the lack of human interaction via email and phone was horrible. Prompt delivery though. Although I was woke up at 5am this morning to a local police officer asking me about me bike..........it had been stolen over night and abandoned a few streets away. Scrapped up pretty good and they broke the mirrors off. Too bad I didn't hear them taking it. They would've wished for police intervention.

Dude... that really sucks! I feel for you.. I had 4 bikes stolen when I lived in England so I know how it goes. Honda XL125, Yamaha RD125LC, Yamaha DT80 and a Suzuki GT500 :( Oh crap.. And a Yamaha XJ550 too.. Wasn't insured as I had only got it the weekend before and I was waiting for payday to get it legal. Bastards!
My MSO actually arrived yesterday with an apology from USPS. They said it was found loose and they put it in an envelope and sent it to the address as PSMax had sent a receipt with it. All sounds a bit fishy to me, It had got wet at some point. But what the heck.. I finally have it. Hope you can get your back back to a new condition again?
