    Contact your DMV with this V.I.N.# LXDPCNL09A212xxxx (add any numbers in place of the x's) At most, you might have to get it inspected first. But they should be able to tell you if they will register and title that vin #.

    Good luck!

I won't make it.Last week I took up some drag bars and a rear 38 tooth sproket to be powder coated. Said they would be ready by Monday. Well I didn't get up there until Thursday. When I walked in and ask for them I got a strange look and, oh, they're not ready yet. I'm like I am four days late picking them up and you tell me they are not ready yet? I took the sprocket with me, I am going to run it chrome. What a difference the 38 tooth sprocket makes. I took out two links of the chain with this. I think I am going to love this bike. At 55 mph the motor just purs, speed limit is 55 around here anyway.The next day I went to pick up the drag bars, when I asked them how much. Free of charge.
    55mph, looks like you didn't make it. LOL. Did you run into any issues changing your sprocket? I have mine in hand but haven't got to it yet...

    I never seen so many people take double looks before, it's like what am I seeing? lol. Parked on the street a dude walks by and says cool looking bike, is that a Harley? What year is it? I said no it's a China Moto 2011. He looked at me like I was just giving him some bull. I said no really. He said well it is a cool looking bike anyway. I found out why the front tire was losing air. The inlet valve in the stem was loose. Two minute fix.
    I most of us are hearing the same. I had another biker pull up at red light wanting to know more.


    I have a lot of questions for you guys. They will come up in following posts.
    Bring it on. I still think the all flat black bike is the best looking.

    It does take a while to go through the thread. Like a good book, I went through it too fast. I have re-read it a few times now and had missed some things.
    How did you realign your seat?


    I ordered 35t sprocket and was wondering if the inlet to manifold is just plugged when removing mai
    I used a vacuum cap to plug the nipple on the intake manifold, most of us have made a block off plate for the head.

    I fixed the seat by removing it and bending the two front tabs to the right about a quarter inch and bolted it back on

    I am thinking about removing the air injector and relocating the ignition. Is there any negative or pro's to doing this.

    Also, the thing backfires on deceleration unless I backoff real easy.

    I did not notice any negative effect after removing air injector. I think the ignition switch looks better mounted in the injectors place. The backfire is from to lean setting, check your main jet the consensus is a 100 or 105
