Plate in hand
I got my MSO from xxx-motorsports on Friday, so to the authorized dmv location I go. They looked at the mso, said it wasn't notarized in 2 locations that needed it, & sent me out the door. On Saturday I went to the next county and tried again. They said they had to verify the vin number by either bringing the bike in, or having a inspection mechanic fill out a form. Sent me out the door with the form. I've been going to the same mechanic for years, so I stopped this morning and he signed away. Went back to the agent this afternoon, and left with registration in hand. They did question the notary part, but after a quick phone call found out it didn't need done because the bike came from CA, which doesn't require the odometer statement be notarized.
I got my first legal ride this evening.....2.4 miles! Odometer is in miles too. |

xxx motorsports does provide legit mso's I had no problem with mine.. from them. I paid for it.. but I specified what was needed to pass my states dmv requirements and it was well worth it.

You make a good point about checking first to see what is required. I did quite a bit of research before I bought my bike, saw that other folks had registered Roketas in PA, & bought the bike. I never gave it a thought to stop at the local dmv office to see what was actually required to get the bike titled & registered.
Suave, I wish you the best of luck with yours, but I think your best bet is to hound t-motorsports until you get a legit MSO. That color copy of a generic one with your info typed on it is BS. I wouldn't even try again until they provided a good MSO, to keep trying is just going to make you look like you are the one trying to pull a scam. Keep your head up & don't be discouraged! |

the only thing my state needs at this point is the legit mco.. thats all i would have needed from the beginning..
I didnt know that the fake one that came on the bike was a fake one.. I've never owned a new vehicle, so i've never even seen an MCO before. But it doesn't make sense that t-motorsports wouldnt provide a legal "birth certificate" for the bike, unless they were doing something shiesty.. I am still trying to stay sane about all this, they're lucky i havent bothered flying out there and personally talking this over, but with much more force involved.
