xr650r good deal?

[adam574]

i dig what you are saying about the odo reading. i can just check that little box and that won't be a problem but on the bottom of the rmv-1 form it needs to be signed by the dealer you bought it from which they won't do. i know my insurance lady will do the rest but i can't get past having them signing the rmv-1 form.

Maybe explore the VT route Adam. Lots of guys have done this. I don't know what type of affiliation the dealer will need to play in it though. Don't give up too soon man! That was and still is a nice bike.

[adam574]

so i contacted the rmv asking them to give me something in writing that would explain what i am doing so bettencourts wouldn't feel like they are doing something illegal. this is the response i got which isn't even close to what i was looking for.

Dude what else did you expect from Taxachusetts or better yet Couldntgivetushetts? They're useless.

alright got some good news... one of my buddies has a 650r already plated in nh and he is going to let it go for 3000 he got it as a left over and only rode it twice... there is absolutely no wear on this bike at all. still has the stock tires and everything. so i will have a bike as of this sat. hopefully by the end of next week i will registered and inspected.

That sounds pretty good. Is there actually anywhere in Massachusetts you can even open up the BRP, besides the street?

I ask 'cause when I lived there; there wasn't much land you could legally ride, and that was 10yrs ago, I imagine it's even worse now. Of course I rode illegal 99% of the time, trespassing, unregistered on the street, etc but I was a juvenille and it was a small hick town so it wasn't a real biggie; but now there's too many yuppies from Jersey, LI and CT moving up that way and they spoilt everything, including inflated home values.

[adam574]

you are correct there isn't much legal terrain around here. i just want a little of both. i don't have enough money for a st bike and dirt bike so i put them into one.

Good things come to those who wait...err...or get put off by the good ole commonwealth of taxachusetts. Good find Adam!

OH YEAH! That’s a better solution! We need to get the East Coast BRP riders together for a Dual Sport ride! Cool!

Sounds alot like the del I got on mine. The guy use to ride it around his front yard with his son on a 50...LOL. Probably made for a good yard tiller. Still had mold release nipples on the tires. To date, it is an '02 with 170.5 miles on it...albeit with a little boot rub (wow does boot rub happen fast). I gotta get mine reistered yet. I only have the original C/O with the dealer name and number on the back. So I gotta figure this thing out now myself. I may apply for title only then go back for registration. I'll just say it will be raced in a series in Canada and needs a title to cross the border. I know people that have had luck doing this on 2-strokes...lol.

When we doing this ride|?!!! Adams' bike will be on the road this week.
