Anyone get a lifan registered in Vermont?

Travis_86 · 04-03-2007, 08:34 AM

I was looking to get a lifan lf200 from ebay and wanted to wait on it to see if anyone has had a problem with getting it registered in Vermont. I dont want to spend over a thousand dollars and figure out it will do me no good.

Hi Travis_86

Then make a decision if you want a bike drop-shipped or not and check with your State First. MDSauve13 has had nothing but trouble in Maryland. Read this post from him... http://chinariders.net/modules.php?n...ewtopic&t=1221

Well what other choice do I have. Is there a licensed lifan dealer in Vermont I can buy from that any of you know of so I can get it registered with the dealer?

Call American Lifan 877-341-2933 or 972-698-7778 for dealer location.

Member: red2003 is from VT, if you PM him you may be able to get some info on registering. If you click on members you can find him and I believe click on his name to PM him. I read all his posts and this was on page 14 of his posts:

I'm up here in Vermont. Long way to go to kick someone's a$$ The situation IS very frustrating though. In Vermont we don't need to title bikes under 300cc's. I do still need a Bill of Sale ...

Moral of the story is check in the dealers forumn or post an inquiry about a dealer you may find. So you can get an idea what to expect.

Good Luck!!

I talked to him and it doesnt seem to hard. Vermont seems pretty chill with registering atv's amd such.

Well,

If you are comfortable with your decision and you've got all the answers.. there is no reason not to proceed with your plans..

1 more question though. I am scared to buy anything off from ebay, and I was thinking about getting my lifan from www.rabbitscooters.com does anyone have any good words about this company?

NewEnglandTrails · 04-03-2007, 07:59 PM

My experience with ebay.. has been, find out the dealers name contact them directly... you can usually get a better deal without ebay.... as far as rabbit scooters go? if they have an ebay rating over 100 and have had no negative feedback in the past 6 months you can give it a shot.... I never heard of them.. Whatever deal you make with them, make sure you can get a legitmate mso and a bill of sale from them..

Good Luck.. NET

NewEnglandTrails · 04-03-2007, 08:09 PM

I checked out rabbitscooters.com they seem kind of expensive.. visit a few more sights before you make your decision.... try xxx-motorsports.com since rabbits features mostly roketa... and you get a very legit mso and bill of sale from xxx... as well as digikool.net.. No need to rush, take your time and the right deal will fall into your lap.

www.rabbitscooters.com is not a ebay seller they are an actual website. I found it through a google search.

NewEnglandTrails · 04-03-2007, 08:13 PM

I saw that.... I visited their site and still think they are expensive... and at least until someone else says they have dealt with them.. unknown..

Hey Travis_86
What LF200 are you talking about? The LF200(III), LF200GY-2 or LF200GY-5 ?? You may end up dealing with the same thing from any on-line so called dealer also. I suggest you do a BBB background check on them. check other forums since it looks like they deal mainly in scooters, just a suggestion.

I was looking at a lifan lf200(iii). There are no licensed dealers in Vermont for lifan, so I would have to get it off line. Since it would be such a problem finding a company online to trust knowing that they might send me a home made mso and go through a bunch of crap I think I will skip on this idea and save more money and get a used jap bike instead. Well i'm out peace.
