For Sale: 2017 CB1100 EX - $9k (Firm)

[Lunchbag]

The first time I lived in CA I bought a barely-used RE Bullet 500 which was a 49-state bike at the time.  The original owner had bought it in NV and he spun the odometer past 7500 miles to register it in CA.  Another trick I recall the RE owners would use was to buy a very, very cheap timeshare.  Each person got something like a square inch of property in NV for a day, which enabled them to register the bike in NV.  Or so the legend goes.  I'm pretty sure those days are behind us now that RE are more popular and it is economical for the company to certify them as 50-state bikes.

The second time I moved to CA I was fined a penalty when I registered my car.  They said I had failed to register it within 30 days of crossing the state line.  Which was true, but I explained that my first 55 days living in the state I was on active duty (terminal leave) and that the soldiers and sailors relief act allowed me to retain FL residency during that time.  And when I left active duty I went straight to the DMV.  You can imagine how far that argument got me.  The poor clerk said sorry, there was nothing she could do.  She had to put the date I crossed the border into the computer, so the fine was unavoidable.

Sorry to detract from the main thread.  Nice looking EX!  I hope it goes to a great owner.  I'm really happy I'm not in the market because if I was, I would be scheming to fly-n-ride via the rally
