[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]How ya doin first time on What's Up. So I'm buying a HI Bird QH250ST
I'm expecting to have a few small problems and i'd like to have an idea of what I may be fixing first.I did a lot of research before I made my decision and I really could'nt find anything negative about this brand. If anyone has any input I would appreciate your time.

 

I bought a Hurricane 250 from Motorxtremes about 2 months ago. When I assembled it, I used loc tite on all the bolts. I also installed the front wheels with the valve stem on the inside to give me more stability. I have ridden the hell out of this thing & so far its holding up like a champ. The webbing for your foot rest got all ripped up in the woods but I made plates out of sheet aluminum & screwed them on the bottom of the tubing where the webbing goes. That give me a secure place to put my feet.

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]I went to the motorextreme site the Hurricane is a nice lookin ride. I bought mine thru Ebay and it's the first thing I've bought with paypal,It's been a pain getting the money to the seller thru them. I orderd it on Oct 5th and it has'nt even shipped yet. Not a good start either way.

 

Call Motorxtremes & ask to talk to Mike, the sales manager. I ordered my Hurricane 250 & a Tornado 200 for my girl. I was very specific with Mike on the colors I wanted & so forth. I then went to the bank & had the money wired to them so I could have a receipt of the transaction. I called him the next day to make sure he got the money. 2 days later, they emailed me with the shipping #. It took about 10 days for them to arrive & I picked them up at a local freight terminal, took them home, & assembled them. I have not had any problems with either one.
