What do you mean by sealed unit? Will the 2012 be sealed also?

Alley, I thought there was some parts covered under warranty during the time frame. You said If the CDI goes you pay and install it, If the Regulator/Rectifier goes you pay and install it or pay someone to do it. I'm confused here why would I have to pay? I know if a shop puts it in I have to pay them, but lets say the CDI goes bad it's covered under warranty can't I just call my dealer and say hey the CDI is bad send a new one and I will put it on?

Hey I read that so I am having a shop do the PDI but he will let me sit in on it. Take some pictures. But my question is I hope anytime something goes wrong and I need a part for warranty, I don't want to have to bring it to the shop. Who would pay the shop fee can't I check my own bike?

I bought it from Mini-bikes Plus nice Lady. The real test will be if I have a warranty problem, then we will see. But checked her out with BBB and even called Icebear which gave her a good mark. I hope to not have any problems but like I said I did a lot of reading and took some notes on different things I should look out for. Rudy

Well after reading and reading I have taken the plunge and ordered a Tornado! Hope to have it soon so I start on the PDI I have heard so much about and is very important. Almost bought a used Magnum but I thought I would start fresh in the color I want RED!! At least I know I have a fine group of guys who can walk me through any hard times. I will keep everyone posted on the progess of the "RED BULL" and if I can figure out how to post pictures and do a Build Journal. Where would I write the Journal under?

Can you help me with the different oil changes? I read somewhere in a post that you had some problems with cracking is there anyway that can be fixed before it gets to bad, I would hate it if it started to crack. I am not a body man no something about mechanics. Thanks Rudy

I have just signed up with this forum and would like to say it seems to be a great place for guys like me. I posted that I am thinking of buying a 300 either a Magumn or a Tornado and just wanted to know if there was any major issues I should be aware of. I was a little surprised on how much they weigh. I have breifly look through the forums and read some posts can anyone tell me on the maintance end about the three different oil changes or lube changes that need to be done? I know about the engine but the tranny and rear end have me alittle confused. Is there any differnce between the two model other then looks? I mean is the drive train the same for both (reverse, engine, suspension, etc ) Thanks you Rudy

Hello everyone!! I amthinking about ordering a 300cc Trike and have been looking on the web for some different models and have got it down to Icebear. I seem to like the Magumn and the Tornado. Has anyone had any big problems with either of them?
