Title: 5th locker...motorcycle
Post by: hibid on October 23, 2011, 05:29:22 PM: So I scored this motorcycle in my 5th unit for 1k. I am really excited about it. Its a 2004 R1. Was laid down lightly. Im gonna call tomorrow and see if I can title it or whether i will part it out. I think i can make 3k on it.

Plus there won't be any hassles over the title or registration. If it does get registered then sales tax has to be paid on it based on fair market value.
