So I was fretting on getting it registered in California, reading into the vehicle code and the guidelines on the DMV. In California the DMV considers any highway-use vehicle with less than 7,500 miles to be new. that’s for vehicles from 1982 to present, with exceptions made for all kinds of legal crap… so here I’m thinking register it with my brother in oregon get 1000 miles on it, and transfer to me… however… what you said resonated with me. I double checked the ODO, and by what you said, the bike has 62K miles on it. please check attached photo.
That being said… ST1100 62K miles with salvaged title… worth the $800 i paid?
