The second guy also told me to "sell it for parts" to a authorized dealer "if they would even take it" in exchange for a few hundred off of my new GY5 that I would have to buy from them if I wanted to have a bike to ride other then in my yard.
He said I had 3 choices
#1 Ride my bike around my yard and be happy with it
#2 Sell my bike for parts to a dealer in exchange for a discount on a legit MSO Lifan.
#3. Sue F.I for selling a bike without a license and try to get some money back.
I really don't like any of my choices very much. Seeing that there is no difference between the bike I have now and a new one except the person selling it and the price. How does this make my bike "worthless"?

Re: #2 -
Did you ask him exactly how that would help? If A.L. or even Lifan isn't listed as approved for the state, it wouldn't matter if it was grey, black, blue or purple.
The agent at the DMV told you, according to the note, that Lifan is not a licensed manu. in your state, so buying a new bike is NOT an acceptable solution.
My advice is to call back and try to get that same guy on the phone (sounds like you'd recognize the voice) and
get his name. I don't expect they'll help or say anything different, but they need to be aware of employees who treat customers so rudely.
I could venture my own guess as to who it was, but I won't.
As for getting plates, I wish I could help. The idea to have it plated in another state first might work.
Best of luck.
(and tell the rude fork on the phone that
he has two choices: Either give up his efforts at customer service, or learn some damn manners. :evil: )
