Hmmm, I just bought my FXR out of Indiana this past April. AAA said they couldn't do the VIN inspection for me. I had to get it inspected by DMV. So either they stopped allowing AAA to do the inspections, or I got wrong information from them again.


When or if I do swap the motor, I'll certainly call and ask. Anything beats dealing with CA DMV.


BTW, your FXR is looking great! Be on the road soon?

Yeah, I don't know what to say there. I personally had the VIN verification done at the AAA office in San Diego (on Hotel Circle). This was back in 2011, so maybe they only allow it at certain offices, or they stopped doing it all together?

Real soon. I could actually ride it now, but I'm waiting for some parts on the speedo/tach setup. I want to accurately track my miles, and monitor my revs carefully during the break in process.

 

You bet bud, we'll be besties

Sweet, I'll bet you're stoked. Hopefully you'll post a bunch of pics. That thing's looking great!

 

Now there is a phrase that I never thought to see on the EVO Forum!!!!

 

This is crazy, I just got a quote from the dealer a week ago to do the reman program.


I was on the fence though since they quoted me $1200 bucks in labor....and you HAD to have them pull the engine to get the warranty. $4g's for the evo reman vs. about the same for a beefed up S&S. Guess that decision was made for me!

I also think that Ultima has a pretty good reman program for EVO's, I think they charge $2g's to do the whole thing.

 

My bad, I should have said BFF's.

 

Yep ... and it's been that way since way back in the day ... many hard nosed cops will hook one up and drag it in until all the paperwork jives ... been there and done that. tmanbuckhunter hasn't had the pleasure yet.
