These guys seem to be OK, I'm not sure but they may be affiliated with XXX motorsports since that was the dealer listed on the MCO. Bike was shipped via Old Dominion Freight. Free shipping right to your door although I went and picked mine up at the depot (just couldn't wait any longer). There are a few discrepancies with the Bike. I ordered a DB-07. It is titled as a Roketa Kinroad although it is actually a New Star Tech DB 200 (same basic thing). There were also a few differences in the specs:
Engine/Drive Train
Displacement: 200cc, 4 Stroke
Horsepower: 14.4 HP (title lists 12.5 h.p.)Transmission: 5 Speed Manual Clutch (1 down-neutral-4 up) actually all down but does not shift to nuetral after 5th. Top Speed: 70+ MPH (had to change sprockets to 14F/35R just to get 60)
At about 50 mi the throttle stuck at about 60%, found a burr on th plunger that caused it to hang up in the carb body. If your throttle does not feel smooth after lubing the cable better check for this. I also adjusted the carb when I had it apart for better idle. Bike runs very well. From the day I ordered it it took 2.5 weeks to get it road ready. All in all not bad, I would rate the dealer at about a 7 out of ten (not sure if they know what they are actually selling but are pretty easy to get ahold of and deal with) and the Bike about an 8 out of ten (needs a different head light and the gearing could be a little better for road travel).
Thanks to everyone for the tips, it's like having a huge owner/service manual on your computer :D .
