Welcome! Every state's registration is different, but these are 49-state EPA/DOT certified, so people have successfully registered them in a very difficult state like New Jersey. You generally need the bill of sale (receipt) and the MCO (or MSO); 'Manufacturer's Certificate (or Statement) of Origin. You will most likely have to pay sales tax to your state, but again, depends what your state does because every one is different. Some states will require a visual inspection.

Anyway, where did you buy your bike from? Your retailer must have bought the last remaining bikes because according to the distributor, they are sold out!

I got it from saferwholesale. I called them and he said they had orange and red left. So I got the orange. Was going to get the Brozz, but everyone seems to be out of those. I hope this thing has enough power.. lol So whats the best way to break these motors in, and what should i expect putting this together?. Looks pretty easy. I heard they ship these things with crappy oil, so im guessing i should change that before break in?

Have you read about "saferwholesale"? I called them and ordered and paid with an echeck (they tricked me into paying with an echeck because it is almost impossible to get a refund) for a bike I was told was in stock. I never heard from them again. So over a week later I call back only to find out they didn't have the bike in stock but they had a cheaper bike they could send me soooo I said ok. I never heard from them again. Soooo around a week later I called back and was treated very rudely and was told that they didn't have that bike ether and the would not be getting any more of them in. I asked for a refund and was told it would take at least another month to send me a refund in the mail. By this time I had read how other people in this same boat had been waiting for over 6 months for a refund they never received. Bottom line it is not safe to buy from saferwholesale. With all this said I wish you luck with your order.

Odd. SPS is showing all three, the Shark, Brozz and Storm as either "in stock" or "available now".
I guess it would take a phone call to confirm.

Does this look like an Enforcer or "Hawk 2" to anyone? Again, "in stock".

I will say it seams that if you call SP and they tell you they have the bike they will have it. That at least is something.

They do not seem to update the website with correct stock levels at all. Pay no mind to the in stock status on the website.

I agree...it would seem rather strange that every other dealer has no stock, and this dealer has everything in stock...how could that be the case?

I would call before I would order. Might be a way to generate some income because they have nothing to sell. You pay for it then all of a sudden you get the email. "out of stock, will ship as soon as they come in" hen fight with them to get a refund.
