We are taking orders now. This container is selling fast and should be in Ca on the 15th, then has to clear customs. Ice Bear is shooting by the 21st to start deliveries.

Jim,
I'm looking at the 2nd to the last pic you posted on 5/1. It looks like there is a 2-stage storage area under the seat. Is there also a storage compartment between the front of the seat and the dashboard? Any other cubbyholes in the dash?
Bob

I'm not Jim....but! Here's a link to a photo of the 2 glove boxes on the Magnum: www.family-motorsports.com/v/www/Magnum-300/1/lg/MC_102_glove_boxes.htmI'm guessing there is some good "under-seat" storage. The Compeller has a couple of underseat storage areas including room for a helmet. I don't know about any other storage, apart from the rear trunk that comes standard on the Compeller. I'm sure Jim will weigh in when he sees this! Marcia....impatiently waiting for her Compeller!!!!

gio; I have been trying to tell everyone to stay away from that county motor sports. I purchased my last scoot from them and they riped me off. I had the DA, BBB, and their DMV after them but got no satisfaction. Jim; I sure love the pits. and info. You sure do go through a lot of trouble bringing this info to us. Thanks.

Your Welcome and Thanks! I do this because dealers get such a bad rap and some deserve it, but there are those of us out there that try and help when we can and get the right info out there. And yes it does help my business. I have a 50cc coming in on Monday and will try and do the same as I did for the Magnum as far as info and pics are concerned. Of course there is Marcia's Compeller hopefully have it soon. Jim/Owner Rapid Repair

Rapid Jim, I asked about this about a week ago, but forgot what forrum I was in. My Ice Bear 300cc Magnum will run just fine for about20 or 30 miles, when I shut it off It wont start again. This just happened again today. The battery is up, full of gas. It is getting spark because the starter tries to turn over and then nothing. It will try to start and then the second try its dead.. BUT if I let it set and cool down for about a half hour, it will start right up. The temp guage soes not show its hot. I know a hot engine, you can smell it. Today I let it set for 30 minutes and it started right up. As I was comming home I was in the left hand lane at a light when it just quit! It was sitting there just idleing smoothly when it quit. I called a friend to come get me, I got my trailer and brought it home. Just a while ago I went out and tried it and bang, it started right up. I dont think I have a dead spot on the starter, because it will try to start and when I try it the second time, I hear just a soft buzzing sound. They are so new nobody has any info on them around here. Any ideas?...hope so...idabill

idabill, It sounds like your valves need to be adjusted, usually when they are to tight and after a good run getting the engine nice and hot they expand and you get a soft seize when you stop. Then after they cool off a little they will free up enough to start. Alleyoop

Allyoop...Thanks to you, hadn't thought of that, but then I'm no mechanic. My riend was thinking about a condenser in the electrical system was getting hot and openning up. I'll find a machanic and we'll see what happens. Will keep all posted. idabill

idabill, yes it was this board that you posted on and I answered, however, they had some problems here and lost about 27 days of posts.
I agree with Allyoop, but it could also be what I would call a "hot" starter. After riding for awhile the starter gets hot and will not turn the motor over until it cools off. The only fix for this is to replace the starter. Your idle may also be set a bit low which would cause it to quit at a stop sign. May be 2 issues here.
