I find it curious that most of the bikes you've purchased have been shipped. You must be more trusting than I am because as I've said I've never had a bike shipped, either as a buyer or seller. I know many guys have bikes shipped all the time. You also mention having purchased one of your bikes without a title. You had a rather unique situation there as far as, apparently using the basket case title for the more complete bike or some combination of the two. I question the legality of that, but I'm sure that's been done before. That's something else that I've resisted the urge to do, buying something without a title, at least on a vehicle that I intend to register, plate, and drive on the street. I have purchased older dirt bikes, quads, 3-wheelers, mini-bikes etc., without titles but many of them didn't have titles to begin with and aren't street legal anyway. I also find it curious that you say in your humble opinion the price is a little high. I have never stated how much the owner is asking for the bike.

[QUOTE="quawk, post: 650117, member: 14913"] I find it curious that most of the bikes you've purchased have been shipped. You must be more trusting than I am because as I've said I've never had a bike shipped, either as a buyer or seller. I know many guys have bikes shipped all the time. You also mention having purchased one of your bikes without a title. You had a rather unique situation there as far as, apparently using the basket case title for the more complete bike or some combination of the two. I question the legality of that, but I'm sure that's been done before. That's something else that I've resisted the urge to do, buying something without a title, at least on a vehicle that I intend to register, plate, and drive on the street. I have purchased older dirt bikes, quads, 3-wheelers, mini-bikes etc., without titles but many of them didn't have titles to begin with and aren't street legal anyway. I also find it curious that you say in your humble opinion the price is a little high. I have never stated how much the owner is asking for the bike. [/QUOTE]
