Is there an issue bringing a CB1100 from CA into AZ? Just paperwork? Taxes?

Is there an issue bringing a CB1100 from CA into AZ? Just paperwork? Taxes? No, not at all. Going from anywhere to California requires that the vehicle meet California emissions requirements, which are stricter than most other states, I think.

I have no desire to sell it then don’t say anything coming in the future that will match it.

I appreciate what that guy did with his website, and I sent him some pictures of my bike because he might appreciate it. That, and I have always disliked the supposed failure point of this motorcycle that it was “under powered “ so would be nice for people looking into it to know that it can wake up with very basic mods.

What 'basic mods' are you referring to?

Intake / exhaust / ign / fuel - just like any other engine in any other vehcle.

In defense of California, I was able to get a clean title for the Junked CB1100 by going through the process provided by California DMV. Saved a very good bike from the smelter.

There can be no doubt that the State of California is grateful to you for saving the energy to reconstitute the wreck and redirect any waste from Mother Nature's body.
