if it is theft recovery, the insurance company likely totaled the bike out..
Lien paid off, bike sold back to owner or junk yard for destruction or part out.
Laws vary from state to state on what can be done with a vehicle like that.
FL apparently disallows a relicense of bike for public roadways. I posted a site a couple months back that outlined laws in all 50 states on these things. But some states will allow you to re-title the vehicle as "salvage" and relicense the vehicle for the road (rules vary) It really spanks the resale value of a vehicle
you can save some serious coin on something like this or loose your pants
randy, you rock. you know something about everything. lots of wisdom and knowledge
alright, i'm gonna
for a minute.
i have a 99'bike with 03'engine, millege ?, rebuilt motor, should i get a salvage or rebuilt title for better resale value.
I got into the garage business in the mid 70's and had to deal with wholesalers for much of it... That also brings the body shop and detail shop business in... When I got my wholesalers license for cars I had to be up on the law or suffer their wrath for mistakes (selling more than 10 cars a year in AZ required license)..
Then add on about 25 years of drag racing...dyno work and crew chief stints..
I also ran maintenance on our family business (A place called big surf) and so I had to learn hydraulic control systems along with massive water pumps and 1500hp natural gas engines.. I also had to get my plumbing and electrical ability up to speed..
It has just been learning something new all the time.. I finally ran out of interest (as a living) for most of that and now am a Network/system administrator (went and got my bachelors for computer sciences at 44 years old)..
I suppose in short, I have occupational A.D.D. or just an all around "fix it" guy
As for the title... dont you have a title now?
