If you want to know the exact fees, visit this link and put in the plate number (23X8249) and the last 5 digits of the VIN (00752). It will tell you how much is due. That number will keep increasing every year.

If a buyer wants to register this bike in a different state, this does not apply.

Why is that? Collecting fees in CA?
I purchased it on BAT from a seller in CA.
PS: "If only it could be registered in TX." ... Why wouldn't it be possible? please explain.
If you register the bike in TX and get a TX plate and title, you are good... My 2c - Please do so asap, it will make it much more attractive to any prospective buyers (like me)!
Good luck!
Thank you for the enlightenment.
I will consider and analyze the option to register the bike in Texas, but that means I'll have to increase the sale price.... I was thinking the low price ($4k for a 6.5k bike) would offset this kind of inconveniences (freight, etc). I feel sad knowing the bike is just standing there unused.
I'm willing to work with any potential buyer to help and make an easy transaction.
I may end up bringing the bike home. Which will be a serious issue with my wife, I have 3 bikes already....
