Get VIN Inspection form from GA DMV Website
Take Bike to Sheriff's Office or Police Station for VIN Inspection
Take MCO and VIN Inspection Form to DMV Office

There are a few Hawks in Arizona. But, more importantly, Arizona, like a few other states, will plate vehicles based on a minimum of street-legal equipment, such as headlight, taillight, turn signals, mirrors, speedo, etc. I know the Hawk will be able to be plated here based on its equipment alone, and that is based on our motorcycle licensing booklet.

Vermont is good to go. In fact they don't care where you live you can always get a plate from them. All in cost for me was $115 for tax and reg. They just need a bill of sale or an invoice. No MSO needed.

15 states so far! I should mention, if one mail-orders a Hawk in Arizona, that they would need the MCO and bill of sale, as well as a visual inspection at the Arizona Motor Vehicles Division (MVD) office. That goes for any vehicle bought out of state (i.e. mail order like many of us do for Chinese bikes or also if one moves to Arizona), or a vehicle such as a dirt bike or ATV is made street legal.

I didn't need an inspection just the MCO and the invoice with the purchase price in ND.

We can add Arkansas to the list of successful registrations. I just took my MCO, proof of insurance and proof of assessment and didn't have any problems. $15.50

Talking to Don at APSC about registering in Indiana, he indicated experience with this and it would proceed fine. Previous experience with such government agencies means I will need to be prepared when I do finally go in and I will report back any issues.

Indiana: Successful!

Just finished registering our two Hawks in Indiana and it was pretty smooth sailing. Some notes on how to proceed:
  • You will need all the documents from your dealer: Odometer Statement, Bill of Sale and Certificate of Origin.
  • If you buy them from a different state than Indiana AND pay taxes, there is another document regarding this you will need. FWIW, APSC did not charge sales tax on our bikes so we just had to pay at the BMV.
  • The bikes must be inspected. We hauled ours to the BMV and they just checked the VIN; Police can also be scheduled to stop by and inspect them but they might be a bit more thorough.
  • The BMV agent may not be able to find the bikes at first if they classify them as "Offroad", they should be classified "Motorcycle" and then they will find the Haosen 250 in the list.
  • DONT BE TEMPTED TO RIDE THE BIKES BEFORE REGISTERING. The Odometer statement should match the bike. If its written for 2 miles and your odometer is different it could cause a bind in the paperwork.
  • Do your own homework and be prepared. Be relaxed and pleasant! Having all relevant paperwork ready and filled out, the bike available for immediate inspection (or an approved inspection from a law officer) helps the BMV and means you likely won't have to make a repeat visit!

Our BMV agent was relatively new but his colleagues helped him out and they did not seem at all confused or surprised by the process or had cause to question the paperwork. So I would say Indiana was definitely successful!

Hey Jerry it's Jerry

This is to JerryHawk250. I see you are in Houma. I'm in Lafayette. I see in your OP that louisiana is gonna want the MCO, bill of sale and odometer disclosure statement. You said NOTARIZED MCO.... does the rest (BOS and ODS) have to be notarized also? I'm very familiar with how "particular" the OMV can be here in LA so I figured I'd try and get that part cleared up in my mind. Also was wondering if you knew what the procedure is if I were to purchase my RPS Hawk 250 online from a company in Texas? I found them from TXpowersport for about $1300 total ($1319), delivered to my door. How does that work with tax in LA? I'll pay tag and title in LA but not tax?

I would look around for a better company to order your new HAWK from jerryjoe... "360PowerSports" is also owned by "TXPowerSports"... always hit and miss customer service from "Manny"... most days it's the customers fault for ordering a China Bike... you will most likely never get replacement parts or anything under the "warranty policy"...

Can find them for less $$ with slightly better service from other companies from I hear

Best of luck whatever you do
