Goodysnap"]Hello Clayton and welcome to the forum,

I too had to deal with getting a title. Though it was a slight pain I was successful.

I have moved from the Lansing area and I'm currently working in Romulus and I would love to come by and look at your bikes sometime.

Good luck with your on-going project.

Nice bike, Clayton! Really nice. Welcome to forum!

Your story on the title search reminded me that I'll have to deal with DMV soon to get my bike registered. It was titled in New York, last registered in 1977. I don't have a bill of sale or the title, just the registrations (it was mine then). Hopefully DMV won't go to hard on me!

I got both bikes together and got the title to the black bike.. but I lost intrest in them
I'm 61 and want to do things with the wife and bikes are not in the picture..
I'm selling out everything.. both bikes all parts I have them listed on craigs list here in Detroit
I will alway come here just to read the on going projects and the intresting troubles people have putting these bike together and I hope someone here buys my bikes and make them what they should be...
God Bless
