I bought Chucks Strada a while back, and was waiting to do the hassle of registering an out of state bike with our DMV, Then I went to AAA for advice.   I am amazed at Triple A. I bought the bike from Indiana, last time I bought a bike from out of state with different engine and frame numbers, it took weeks to get it registered and two or three trips to the DMV and a trip to the CHP. I got this bike, went down to the AAA a few blocks from my house, they looked at the paperwork, charged me $186 tax and registration and wanted to know if I had the bike so they could issue plates. Well, I just went down there to find out the process. It took me 5 minutes to pay everything, they had me bring in the bike this morning where triple A looked at the VIN and Engine numbers, saw the safety stickers and 10 minutes later handed my new plate and stickers along with registration, title will be mailed. Also of ease, I called progressive last night, gave them the VIN, while I was on the phone a new insurance card was sent to my email.... I cant believe such a simple out of state registration can happen in California!!!! Triple A is the best deal around. I spent 15 minutes total to register an out of state bike with no plates and mismatched engine and frame numbers, and was treated very well the entire 15 minutes.....  This cannot be happening in Kalifornia :evil:
But the bike is on the road and is a gem, I really like it.... But about these carburetor things, how do they work :wink:

Those carby things will work fine, woorse things you can do to them is let the bike sit unused and fix them when they're not broken. Just ride :bike-037:

So what's it been.. 3 years?  :evil: Finally gave up trying to keep sort of fresh fuel in it and drained the tank and carbs.  :smiley: Glad to see that worked out. You wouldn't have wanted to have old "enriched with ethanol" Indiana gas to deal with. Trust me.  :smiley:
