Garage kept in Gowanus, cash in hand for a test ride. I’ll hand you the title.

Bring your own license plate, or be like half the rest of the city and ride home without one. Willing to ride back to your place if local and pull the plate from there.

Impressive mechanical modifications!

I loved this part of your classified....

"or be like half the rest of the city and ride home without one."



My first RC15 was an '83 VF750F purchased locally in Daytona Beach - about a 20 minute ride away. I had a buddy drop me off and I rode her home. IIRC, I brought a plate with me from one of my other bikes. Gotta say though - there's noting like riding a newly purchased motorcycle home vs. trailering.

GLWS!
