You should be fine on 60 MPH roads with the DF and a ride of 60 miles or more is no problem with the DF. However the DF will arrive in a crate if you buy it online so you need some wrenching eperience. If you don't have the expertise available then you should look for a dealer.

You sound like you have never bought a vehicle before with your questions about a MSO and VIN. There is nothing different about buying a DF than any other vehicle. Usually a dealer handles the paperwork with the MSO and the DMV/Tag office.

Manufacturer’s Statement of Origin (MSO) is needed to register/title the bike at your DMV or county tag office.. Sometimes it is called the MCO or CCO. Hopefully, it will be sent to you by the seller of the bike.

The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) will stamped on a plate on the bike or automobile. It must match the number on the MSO.
ah yes i have i just never did it to where i had to do all the stuff on my own, i just dont want there to be a hassle getting it on base, and thanks for the invitation, i am in the army, and i figured this would be a cheap and fun hobbie to play around with as im sure you know guys in the barraks need there money for beer, lol. also as far as mechanics are concerned i have worked on cars for years and can figure things out by playing around with them, but by reading the thread it seems all i have to put on is the handle bar, mirrors and pegs at the most, is there more the i have to do other then that, is there extensive electical work that i have to get done?
thanks agian man
