First bike…practice time

    Well, I just paid for my first bike. A 2003 Virago 250. The seller is delivering it to me. I have a question. I am in Texas (I guess the process can be different in different states). The seller will take his tags, sign the title over to me and submit a form to TxDOT that he sold the bike to me. Then I’ll have a few days to get it inspected, registered and titled. Sounds good but I am not ready to drive my bike around town to accomplish this. I am looking forward to the parking lots (even though I’ll have to hit the street some getting to the lots.) What are your thoughts?

    Good little bike, have fun!

    And since I’m sitting in sub-freezing temperatures waiting another month before I can ride on a daily basis, I’m thinking some very unkind and jealous thoughts. Care to trade weather patterns? ;)

    To ride it down to TxDOT if you need to take it there for inspection. But it seems like in theory you could register and get plates/tags, then take it in for inspection. Because otherwise you’ve got to ride it without plates and tags to get it there.
