Assembly is more or less the same as the Hawk. You can find assembly videos on youtube. The Mikuni carb is a better carb. Most people prefer the Mikuni over stock as it seems easier to work with. 35lbs spoke torque is about right. Not sure of your spoke nipples they can be diffrent from bike to bike. Most of these china bike come with tight valves. Get a o ring chain.
15 - 40 weight diesel oil or wet clutch motorcycle oil. DOT 4 brake fluid.

As mentioned, there's build threads here on a bunch of CG motored bikes. They all share a ton of the same basic parts, though some look fancier than others so usually any info you run across is good info.
As Merlin said, the Mikuni is preferred and I run them on everything, mostly because they're super cheap, there's a variety of available jetting that is not easy to find on the stock PZ Keihin clone.

The main thing is, if it runs good at your elevation, you win! They usually come woefully lean though, to pass EPA regs. This will cause a cold blooded bike and a bad stumble at wide open throttle.

Congrats on the two Storms! Those are one of the favorites around here and getting hard to find.

It would of been great if that would of came with the Hawk. I searched high and low to find one before I even got the bike. But I figured it all out.
