Congrats!

thanks clint.

lucky for me the bike came with the service manual too.

**Clint** · 03-19-2007, 09:47 AM

Hopefully, that means it was serviced on occasion.

i was told by my boss that i was not allowed to take anything off this bike.
(i have bought it from his best friend)
anyways, they may be squidiots, but they do take care of their bikes.

and i won't do anything to this bike at all.

until after i have jack up and running.

Sunny,

You'll have to update your profile. This bikes big enough for you to be able to mount a custom holster for your " Clue x 4 " !!

sunny · 03-19-2007, 02:00 PM

i don't want to jinx the whole deal...

i know that's stupid. but when the title is in hand, then off i go!

palanon · 03-19-2007, 02:14 PM

Do they have a special way of filing for titles in Texas or did the guy loose the title and your filing for a new copy ?

sunny · 03-19-2007, 03:20 PM

no.

he only bought it to help a friend get out of trouble with the wife. so he never bothered to place it in his own name since he was just going to resell it and get his money out of it.
then he lost the title.

palanon · 03-19-2007, 03:36 PM

Yikes

Here you would need to get a new title from the state and have the friend sign it over.

sunny · 03-19-2007, 03:37 PM

that is what is happening.
