not sure what state your in, but here in california you can input the vin number on the dmv web page and get a pretty good estimate in costs. when i got my bike it was 6 months past registration and the websites estimate was correct within $5. good luck on the conversion. was able to get '04 1000rr fairings on my f1 within 8 hours.

Wow that sucks. In Michigan we just a basic reg fee. The car can sit for 4 years and it'll still be $15 like my 81 Cutlass

cartagz is the same prices as the dmv since they are affiliated with them.

Same here on being a cheap ***. Including the price of the bike and registration im trying not to hit the $1000 mark. but with the new tires coming soon, i will be over by $100. oh well.
