Backorder hell just got ridiculous today.....
So when you pick up a new motorcycle you know you are going to need a few things for it. I know the traditional riding season is winding down for much of the state and nation but EVERYTHING I have tried to get for my bike has been on back order.
Here is the history and the funny part.
-Frame sliders-backordered....finally got them
-Clutch slider.....still back ordered
-Swing arm sliders/spools...back ordered...finally got them.
-Helmet......back ordered..got it last week (3 week wait)
-Shield for helmet still on back order, finally cancelled it because I found on in town.
-Riding jacket.....was at least only a 2 week wait.
-R1 gel seat still on back order
-Went to the DMV today to get my real plates and get rid of the happy tag .......THE STATE OF COLORADO IS OUT OF MOTORCYCLE PLATES.....Yes....that is right.....even my tags are now on back order

Still have your old MC plates? Can you transfer them?
I just transfered the old plates from our Scion to my beater Audi. No big deal at all and it saved a few bucks.

I let the guy take it home with him when he bought it.
(It was expired by 3 years anyway)
The state got plate in later yesterday and I now have my new plate. The lady at the counter was very nice and called me as soon as they came in.
