I meant the process with the dmv. I’m pretty familiar with the shady tactics of these dealers. Thanks though.

@rigidchop. I will let you know how registration goes. I got mine from Q9powersports. On their homepage there’s a link to registration and you fill out the form with the serial number on it and other information like make and model. Then in about 3 to 5 days they send out the certificate That I take to the DMV. I will let you know how that goes. I have read that some bikes you fill out the registration information and the certificate comes all the way from China. That is not the case I am told with this bike.
The only thing I found damage was that little peg that they rear brake spring goes to on the bottom of the frame was bent but that doesn’t seem to cause a problem. I can’t seem to figure out what this lock is on the steering/ignition key. if it’s supposed to lock the steering in place I can’t seem to get it to do that. ***nevermind. Figured it out steering has to be all the way to left or right to lock steering. I don’t want to get off topic so i think i will post another question about hauling the bike in another thread.

Update, no problem registering in West Virginia WV
Hi all, here is an update ridigchop asked for.
I received my certificate of origin from Q9 powersports and a bill of sale 5 days after I filled out the online form. I went to my insurance agent and got insurance on the bike with the vin number. I took the insurance paper, bill of sale and certificate of origin to the dmv and I was out the door in less than 30 minutes with a plate and temporary registration. It was actually a painless trip. Let me tell you how the certificate of origin was filled out: Chongqing Haosen Motorycle C., LTD (listed at top) VIN number - xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Year 2017 Make RPS Body Type: Motorcycle HP(S.A.E.) 15.5hp/239cc GVWR: 264 lbs Shipping Weight 303 lbs. No. Cyls.: 1 Series or Model: HS250Y-A HAWK Then distributor's name address and Ricky Power Sports LLC is listed below. I have heard others write do not put "Off-Road Motorcycle" in the Body Type. Just put "Motorcycle". Overall my process with Q9 power sports went well. [With the exception of the bike sitting for 2 weeks in one shipping place and a bent piece on the bottom of the bike (where the rear brake spring hooks on bottom of frame). That's all on the shipper.] I used layaway, they were easy to get a hold of, they filled out the certificate of origin in a way which allowed me to register it and sent it very quickly. I had no problems at the DMV in West Virginia/WV. |

I appreciate it! I’d heard that it was relatively painless in WV.

Glad it all went well for you. I'm waiting for my 3rd MCO to arrive in the mail. I have what must be the pickiest DMV on earth with a 2-3 hour wait in the lobby every time I have gone. If this one doesn't fly I don't know what I'm going to do lol. ![]() |

Arkansas. The humidity alone should be enough to keep anyone away.

Hey Chip if your dmv won't play nice get it registered in VT via the mail. Then just transfer it to Arkansas.

You shouldn't be having problems getting it registered. The Storm is 49 state street legal. I would go to a different DMV or to one of the Notary/Tag places if you have them in Arkansas. Those people are in business to make money and will take the time and effort to get it registered. What seems to be the issue with the MCO's?
