3. Setup and Assembly
The X-PRO Hawk Mini Dirt Bike requires some assembly upon arrival. Follow these general steps. Specific instructions may vary slightly by model; refer to the detailed assembly guide included in your packaging.
Assembly Steps:
- Handlebar Installation: Attach the handlebar brackets securely. Ensure handlebars are aligned and tightened to prevent movement during operation.
