Hello, I'm Lance, a newbie on VFRD. I have owned a new 1998 VFR, and a delightful 1994 VFR. I now realize both bikes were deep in the "Never shoulda sold that bike" category. I would appreciate advice from an experienced VFRworlder: on which forum and where in it should I post the following question: Original situation: I am now shopping for another VFR and have found a nice 2003 in California, but the seller says it is a Canadian motorcycle. He states that he "turned in the documentation when he started the process" [The documentation process]. But the motorcycle has no registration. Before I bother trying to determine whether he is honest, a thief, or a fence, here is my question: "Is a VRF that was originally sold in Canada legal in California?" i.e. does it have the EPA sticker under the fuel tank like VFRs of US-origin? Thank you for any assistance you can offer. Lance
I have done this dance a time or two and never would again, and that was with oot of state vehicles not oot of country. If the seller can not produce a valid title you must walk away unless it is so cheap you can take it on withoot worries of your loss.
Thanks Toe Cutter. I am inclined to agree with you. A CA DMV services agent I have worked with before says he can get it registered in CA without a title IF the Canadian VFR has EPA and DOT stickers on its frame. I will contact American Honda and Honda Canada to see if they know whether the bike has those placards, then report back here. Cheers.
Ya this sounds like BB and Randy's work, sense your in Communist Ca:joker: Oh I forgot to add that sneaky Duccman who like Italian junk sometimes he try's to put the wrong parts in
