Is the Hawk Chinese Junk After all?

So I have a Magician, not a Hawk. But the engines are essentially the same.

I took it on a 100 mile ride and the little thing rattles so much at high speed the exhaust stud broke off, leaving half of the shaft in the head.

Now if the metal is that soft, should we not be concerned about all the internal bits, gaskets, and everything else? I thought these were for 3rd world countries but it can't take paved roads?

Anywho the bike is 6 months old and the engine is under warranty with TX Powesports. Do I have any chance of them honoring a warranty claim?
