My mechanic has had an early 80s Interstate sitting out back for several years. He got it running a couple years ago but has left it sit since. I can't stand it anymore. I asked him to find a home for it instead of letting it rust and he said "make me an offer". Me: "Do you have the title?"...
I really wanted to, but I did not bring it home. He even dropped the price to $150! I even risked a few hundred $ in tickets to drive my unregistered truck to get it! The pictures didn't show the real condition. It was very, very rough. No lights. All the chrome was rusted. BUT it did fire right...
Yes, I've looked into it. There's the official method in PA which requires a court appearance and takes months. There's also the method everyone really uses. Nevada and I think Connecticut will let out-of-staters apply for a new title for a fee. They will run the VIN to make sure it's not stolen...
Another title can be had for about $200. I'd like to see this rescued! It looks like it's in pretty good shape. I know bikes this size aren't worth a lot but it deserves to live! What say you?

I've already emailed that I want it. No, I begged her to let me get it so I can save it from being scrapped.
I sold my ramp weeks ago. Don't know how I'll get it in the truck. I'll figure...
Now that it's ridable I will do some more on the Wing. Still have to get the idle fixed. The exhaust will come off to be painted properly and the ride-off centerstand put on. Then there's fork rebuild.
Riding season returns to Pennsylvania :rocks: !
I didn't work on the Wing yesterday but I did re-legalize the Kawa and ride it a bit for a Spring shakedown after 18 months of sitting. Star Tron and Sea Foam work. It's had the same treated gas in it since Fall of 15 and it started and ran fairly...
Last year I asked about the 8 pound hunk of iron bolted to the fork on the Interstate. I think this vid sheds some light on the topic.
