I'm sure that all of this pain will be worth it. I'm looking forward to many ride reports on that cool bike.

I went through the same thing with my lifan. Fortunately the local dealer I bought it from took care of things.

When the government wants something from you, it has to be perfect.

When you want something from the government, the same rule doesn't apply. :roll:

Getting your bike registered is one of the unique joys of owing a Chinese motorcycle.

I wish you luck on your next "final" trip to the local DMV. As Weldangrind stated, all the effort will be worthwhile after you get the license plate for your bike.

Thanks for the encouragement, guys.

I don't give up easily anyway, I know sooner or later they'll get tired of seeing me and give in! (lol)

As a distraction, I bought a Yamaha Vino 125 ($650) last week to make money off of, wasn't running, had 1500 miles on it, looked like new. Needed a battery, $40. Drained the carb, green 2-stroke gas (guess I found out why they were selling). Ended up taking the carb out twice to get all of the gunk out of the jets and off of the float. Got a tag in 15 minutes. Been riding it to work, lots of fun. Had it up to 62 (down hill), cruises well at 48 with me on it.

Should get the inspection forms done today, and back to the tag office tomorrow!

At the risk of hijacking your thread, how did you get the slow jet clean in the Vino? BTW, feel free to start a new thread on it.

Removed it and used a small needle with some cleaner. Blew it out with 50PSI on the compressor. Repeated the process three or four times.

The idle is not "just right", but it gets better with every 5+ mile ride.

Saddle bag rain covers pictures.

Coming out of the pocket:

Over the bags (how do you like my tag?):

SpudRider · 08-11-2011, 05:46 PM

I've seen those Georgia license plates before.

katoranger · 08-11-2011, 09:48 PM

That is the fancy printed tag.

I need to get me a set of the bags too.

Thanks for your explanation. I've never been able to find a needle that's small enough.

A funny thing happened at the tag office today...
So I had all of my completed (for the second time), got to the tag office.

My Tag Lady came back and said, "The manufacturer was not filled out on the VIN inspections form."

Me, "We can't just write it in?"

Tag Lady, "No, we can not fill it out, must be done by the inspections officer."

Me, "Can I borrow your pen, I think I saw him down the hall..."

Her, "As long as I don't do it."

Me, "I'll be back in a minute."

After that, the folks in Atlanta gave them (the Tag Ladies) a hard time, but finally gave in after our Tag Lady reminded them, they said it would be ok.

So, without further ado.....

APPLAUSE!!!!!!
