Don't buy from txpowersports if you live in GEORGIA
You can not register Txpowersports bikes if you live in Georgia,
Georgia requires the Sheriff verify the NHTSA label, The bikes from Txpowersports do NOT have this label, not sure but all Hawks and Magicians may be this way, all Chinese bikes may not have the label, I do not know, ASK before buying! ALSO, my VIN came back as invalid. The vin readers on the internet can't decode them either Txpowersports also charge a 30% restocking fee + you pay return shipping. (Close to half the price of the bike) It is in the fine print but this is a heads up. DON"T DO IT. |
I have seen online retailers replace bikes that buyers could not register in certain states, with DOT certified bikes. I am sure you will have an uphill battle, but to me, TXpowersports bears some of the responsibility (as other retailers have done) because you assumed the bike could be registered in Georgia. I would pursue this angle, and point them in the direction of Chinariders. Member 'Azhule' had a negative experience with them, and made his feelings known publicly here on Chinariders, which I am sure cost them some sales.
The owner, joined here a few months back to accept some praise from one of the members, and would not respond to Azhule's concerns on the same thread. Perhaps, you can find that thread and revive it with the negative of being sent a bike you cannot register. |
Hey Jmcgee
I'm considering buying a Hawk. I live in Flowery Branch, Georgia; Did you get the registration/title/tag issues worked out with your bike? |

On the other hand, Bashan bikes are 49 state certified (Californians need not apply) so you would be good to go if you ordered a Bashan. |

My Bashan Storm has the sticker on the frame.

This would have been valuable information last Monday
I posted about my experience so far with TXPowersports on the new riders thread. I haven't even gotten the paperwork yet, and I've already done some mods and tinkering with the bike. I really hope that when the paperwork gets here I can get a tag for the bike. I'm going to me more than a little cranky if I just dropped $1,400 plus another $300 in mods for a glorified paperweight... On a slightly happier note, I'm really pleased with the bike so far. I'll keep everyone posted once my paperwork arrives and I make my first (of perhaps many) trip to the DMV.
