Duuuuuude ... titling in TX is hard ??? really, I was told it was easy ... if no title I no buy ... OK, I had a bandit in my sights, Matter of fact I was gonna ask on here if the first gen B6 had the same transmission issues as the 89-98 Katana 600's, though this one is solid. It even looks good really and was $350 bucks, all it had was tars that were shot, like they held air, but by the end of my test ride it was beginning to go flat. If it was NC I'd be all over it. There its easy titling crap like this, BTW there is like a 100 of title less POSes on every for sale site including craigslist. Is there some kinda title eating locust in TX.
Cool.

I found one but its gonna cost me $125...I'd like to spend less if at all possible.

Texas does have an issue...the biggest being there's a lot of people here who don't take care of shaZam! and thus lose their paperwork...the second biggest is people whose machines suffer minor issues and they tell billy joe next door to haul it off.  Texas is a pain in the ass.  I've learned numerous times it's easier to buy a clear title frame and swap over or weld the steering her to the old machine.

Haha bombadillo if you still got it and don't care you can sell me just the steering head with the VIN and send the title.

Yea, I aint doing frame swap on the Buddha Loves You. I'd raid it for parts, except most of the B6 parts are worthless, even worse than even the GS sheite.
Cool.

I would, srinath...you can get a titled GSF frame for pennies.  I'd also do it just to cram the 600 engine into a GS500.  Man, I'd do it for all kinds of reasons.

That makes no sense, ajax.

Oh yea mak ... while I am at it why dont I fix all sorts of banking computer sheite and then even fix people's random parts collections carbs. Yea ... while I am doing pointless work ... I went and told the guy, I'll buy the wheels, dash and carbs for $200. I was being very generous and foolish. Luckily, he refused.
Cool.
