Pedro Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 So, I have gotten a rental GS to take to Italy next week. I will be leaving a few days later and making more of a dash to Milan. Probably now not doing any of the mountain passes I wanted to do on the way there since I am not too keen on putting a rental bike offroad, doing that not on my own bike doesn’t have the same appeal. Am very miffed with it, and am considering buying a second bike in the coming months or year. Would have gotten one now in a hurry, but there’s no way I would have the paperwork done in time for the trip. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Plus, since the gearbox is coming out, the bearings will be replaced and things will be inspected for wear and changed accordingly, and the timing chains will also be inspected and if over half of slack tolerance they’ll be changed too. Bike should be good for a while after all that, at 122.000 now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 10 minutes ago, Buckster said: What paperwork do you need? I need the title in my name, when you buy a vehicle here you change owner and it takes a week or two before the new title arrives. During that time you have a temporary document, but that is only valid inside Portugal. I could go with someone else’s bike as long as I had the title in my hands, but when you buy it the previous owner wants the registration changed immediately, obviously.

Pedro Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Just now, Buckster said: I'm surprised you still need that within the EU. You always need a vehicle’s current registration. While that is being changed the previous document isn’t valid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You go to a registry office, or a notary, deliver the old title and a change of property form, and are left with a disused title and a temporary paper. Eventually, within a week or so the new title arrives in the mail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Physically take the registration paper, not the bike. Anyway, that’s the price I pay to live in a place where people don’t fry candy bars. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
