[tnt go east]

Hi Hubbsters

Im on my way back from an overlander to Nepal with the Missus and the 4x4, so the next trip is mine.....Hurrah!!!

Reckon cause the dollar is weak at the moment ill buy a Hog in Los Angeles and take in a few sights on my way to New York.

I could do with some help finding a bike in LA!! so a few websites would be good or a helpfull soul in LA to get a good deal would be fantasatic...

Then when you come acros the pond i could help you
Nice One is this a fat boy!!!

Go to www.craigslist.com to look for bikes. You will need a US address to register it. I can help with that.

www.cycletrader.com always has some good deals. Classified ads in the various L.A. newspapers are worth a look as well, I've listed a few. www.dailynews.com, www.latimes.com, www.headlinespot.com, www.langnews.com. Also www.onlinenewspapers.com, you can find other newspapers with classified ads in and around the area you are going to purchase a scoot. Hope this helps.

Good luck
Charlie

Hi Pete

Thanks for Craigs list...its spot on what i was looking for.

The plan is to by a bike out west and ride it to NY. Maybe you can tell me if there are any legal hoops i have to jump thru??? you say i need to register it..ok.
So what else do i need to know?? I appreciate your words of wisdom

Thanks Tim

You will need to show proof of insurance when you register the bike and pay state sales tax on the bike (7.25% based on the price of the bike) when you register it.
