so where'd the other 42.12 go?

I'd want to know about that doc fee.

Should be $150 max including the title & temp tag.....really should only be about $130 max.

I know $100 bucks is only $100 bucks, but if they are selling the thing for full pop MSRP I do not want to feel like I am getting reamed on the doc fees.

Wait until there is snow on the ground. I bet you'll find them then for $4,500 out the door.

I really like that bike.

I think a used WR is a better deal though, especially for Kyle. Plus having two of the same bike simplifies maintenance needs, parts, etc.

If you needed a lift one of us with a truck or trailer could pick you and the bike up. I wanted to make sure you weren't being left stranded after returning the car in Erie.

Are we talking about the same Erie? By my math, Erie is in NW PA and 20 miles farther north puts you in Lake Erie.

Same Erie. The town is called North East and you're correct, northeast of Erie

Thanks for the offer

Doc fees are fucking bullshit anyway.

The dealer pays a person to go to the clerk of courts and deliver the paperwork, basically.

I'm not opposed to paying the title fee, which is like $7 or so, and the temp tag fee (if you even need one); and of course you pay the taxes at the time of sale, so really the doc fee should be about $25 with a temp tag, $7 without. Factor in notary costs of $1 per stamp (they legally cannot charge more than that), and factor in a fair wage for the person running the errand of about $12 / hr, then factor in that they are delivering multiple titles at one time so individual costs should decrease; and I could see maybe $30 for doc fees.

Short notice, but I'm doing a gravel ride out of Marietta Wednesday afternoon. Probably leave 12:30-1 tentative plan is Woodsfield & back on maximum gravel. It will be myself (KLR) & another guy from Tallmadge area (1200GSA). Probably laid back speed as long as his bike keeps running , it broke down around New Philly last time this was supposed to happen. This is his first time in the SE, I expect he'll be ruined of any other OH riding by Wednesday evening.
PM if interested & we can figure out meet up spots.

Local sales tax?

In the event you haven't tried it yet, this guy puts a half stick of cinnamon in the bottle before he corks it. It's like getting drunk on apple pie.

I've never made apple wine, so I'll give it a shot. I have done grape so the chemistry is similar. I found a super old cider press in my wife's grandparent's barn, so hard cider is a go too.....

I make a mean apple pie shine with my little home distilling operation, usually make enough to have a good fall party. It's also easy to make with everclear, I do either depending on my laziness......

None made, but I can give you a recipe using everclear if you can lay your hands on some. I get it from a buddy in the National Guard, they sell it on bases in Ohio.
