So-Cal riders

AAA usually helps me with everything else I need too, but for my bike during this process, they said to create a file pretty much of a new bike, has to be done at the DMV. I've done VIN verification through head offices of AAA before, but it was on a 1953 vehicle which was currently registered out of state. I think AAA can help for the most part, as long as it's currently registered, or at least already in the process, but first things first if there's no title at all, no paperwork at all, you will need to start at the DMV. If you find out otherwise though, please let us know! I've got 2.5 other bikes I'm currently putting together which I could definitely use that process, which would save a ton of time at the DMV.

All in one visit, I think the only hold up may be the VIN verification. I wonder if you can get the bike VIN verified without needing it requested by the DMV. On the "new title" application form maybe?

Hey guys, not to social on here but wanted to know if anybody could recommend a shop or person to do some work on my 75 CB500T, looking to possibly get the engine rebuilt, I have new seals, gaskets, bolts, and need to do a full tune and custom exhaust.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I am located in the SFV but can go further if I need to

There is place over in Glendale, and depending on who you talk to, they are either the best shop ever, or they suck. But wouldn't hurt to go see what's up...

I've never taken any of my bikes to a shop, so can't speak from experience. But these are who I know locally.

Carpy's motorcycles - Anaheim (or Orange?)
Justin's Cycles - La Habra
Lossa Engineering - Long Beach
Century Motorcycle - San Pedro
Kott Motorcycles - Newhall

Kott is probably closest to you. I ride by his place twice a week, but never been inside. Just know he does a bit of honda cafe work.

I'll come along for the ride. Hope your group is cool with a non-scoot.

 

[tegboi]

non-scoots come along all the time! See you there Mike!

 

[socalmike_cb72]

Thanks for the invite tegboi. That was officially my first group ride!

 

[tegboi]

yea buddy! Nice meeting you too Mike!

These rides are typically faster pace, not so many fall backs, or people getting lost. We had one guy who's max speed was 42mph, and that was tough to keep at his pace. The bigger rides are easier because the slow bikes keep with the slow bikes, and the faster guys stay with the faster guys, and folks in each group know where we're going.

Till next time!

Any of you guys go to the Hell on Wheels events? I know there was a dirt tracker event last weekend, and I heard there's something else during OCT. Anybody down to meet at the next one?

Anyone have plans for Labor day? I'm thinking of doing a ride up the coast from LA. Want to get to at least Santa Barbra. Be cool to ride someone else. Also just got a gopro, so planning on using it.

Will be leaving from the Long beach area. Somebody hit me up!!

Ah nice!! I think you can probably still make the ride. Its just freeways right? Does PCH count?
