so i bought (he pretty much gave me for$100)this 1991 kx500 from a good friend of mine that restores ventage 2 strokes. he had owned the bike for 5or6yrs and done nothing with it. knowing how much i love my2001 kx500 he figured i would put it to good use.the bike was in good shape. i spent about 10 hours fixing,fab'n and making stuff right on the bike. the brakes r next. the bike fires on first good kick(no sissy kicks on this bike).
so i want to ride it friday(carnegie ohv),i load(in the crazy pouring down rain) the bike up inthe back of the toyota4x4 and haul it to dmv(thats department of motor vehicle/fyi). so im not sure what everyones else has to do to get there bikes registered,but i think i could find away to cure cancer faster then i can get a tag for my bike.
first i have to stand in a line to get a number,so i can wait for a nother line to stand in. after almost two hours its finally my turn. i hand the lady(troll in human skin) my paper work and explain, slowly and clearly that i would like to do a title transfer and register the bike. she asks is the bike here"yes i reply(now i want to point out that this will play in to the story later). so she looks at my paper work(which consest of a hand writen note from the owner&and a dmv paper i was give at the first line) and says with a mensing grin"where is the pink slip"(the owners title). to which i reply"he said he lost it" i thought the trap door under my feet was going to open and trop me to the lions,she/it looked sooooo happy,i had now gave her the way to make my life hell. she types a couple lines(probley telling all the other trolls that dinner(me)would be ready in a minute. she tells me "sure ur going to have to take this bike to the CHP(california highway patrol) to have them do a vin verifacation. so here we go. i tell why? u ran the numbers it did not come back stolen,the bike is outside,go look to make sure the numbers match. with a wicked laught she tells me in a not so kind way that it was new"policy" to send all of these cases to the chp.
so insted of me getting my title i get a stupid temp use permit, had to make an appointment(almost a month away,the soonest they had open)with the chp,and the great oppertunite to go wait in the dmv lines one more time. Yah
