Without reading the entire thread, did someone here buy this bike, or is it still in the conversation stage?
I keep hoping to make a "garage find" of a California that just needs a little (very little) work to be ride able.
Has any one here had any luck with the Vermont registration trick or any of the online title services recently? I have heard that the loopholes have been tightened up in the last couple years.
Caffeineo, how about this: http://www.kijiji.ca/v-touring/calgary/guzzi-california-111/1202745202?enableSearchNavigat ionFlag=trueMaybe not a "barn find" price, but very reasonable IMO. It has been listed since mid-summer, so he's probably willing to deal. And remember he's asking in 75-cent Canadian dollars. That raises the question of importation though...
I'd say find out your state's procedure for titling an untitled vehicle first. I did that a couple years ago in NC, and was able to get a plate and registration for a barn-find bike in three days. It cost $100 more than the normal title and registration fees, which is a lot less than some of the Vermont type procedures.
I bet if you got it in a truck and took it to your local DMV so they could see it, you would get a title without too much problem. Unless they call the men in white coats to get you........

Thanks for all the ideas. I went to see the State Patrol in Colville yesterday to see about them looking at it for an abandoned or junk vehicle title. Their office is closed until Nov 8. That will give me time to check into some of these alternatives.
