Any owners in south Florida willing to help out?

[le_penseur_imp]

Hello!

I am located in California and have found a low mileage 2017 CB 1100EX in South Florida and have been speaking with the owner about doing an out-of-state purchase and having it shipped to me.

The seller has provided pics and other than a scratch on the left mirror it looks clean. I was wondering if there is any 1100 owner in the south Florida area willing to go check out the bike for me before I send the owner payment?

Appreciate the help!

Don't want to discourage you, but there are some things to be aware of.
Because the CB1100 is a 50-state vehicle, it can be registered in California with an inspection verification. ( A 49-state bike must have over 7500 miles on it.)

Here are excerpts from the DMV website:

"Unless the vehicle was originally manufactured to meet California emission standards or the owner or vehicle qualifies for an exemption, California law prohibits California residents or businesses from bringing into California or registering in California, a motor vehicle which is less than 2 years old and has less than 7,500 miles on the odometer at the time of purchase, trade, or acquisition."

"Requirements to Register a Nonresident Vehicle
• An Application for Title or Registration (REG 343) form completed and signed by all registered owners
shown on the out-of-state registration or title. For leased vehicles, the signature of the lessor is required.
• The last issued out-of-state title. When an out-of-state title is not surrendered to the Department of Motor
Vehicles (DMV), the California registration card is marked “Nontransferable” and a California Certificate of Title is not issued.
• The last issued out-of-state registration certificate or current year renewal notice, or a letter, fax, or wire from the last registration jurisdiction verifying the registered owners name(s) and the vehicle’s last registration expiration date.
• A Verification of Vehicle (REG 31) form completed by an authorized DMV employee, law enforcement officer, or California-licensed vehicle verifier. "

Very importantly, the original Honda emissions label must be shown to the inspector. It is under the seat, on the top of the fender. If it's not there, you likely won't be able to Calif. register it.
Also note, a recent change is the requirement of the current registration from the seller.

If you are an Auto Club member, they can inspect it and title/register it. (If you aren't, it would be worth it to join.) I would explain to the seller that you need pictures of the title, registration, and emissions sticker before purchase. (he can cover up his name/address if he's paranoid).

Yep, I am aware of the requirement. Bike has already been confirmed as 50-state bike with the sticker. I was planning on doing the title transfer at AAA.

I notice there is no "and / or" clause regarding 2 years and 7,500 miles...

In this case it's a 2017--so it's not less than 2 years old...therefore CAN it be brought to CA and registered?
