Local PO address to register bikes
Dear HUBBers
We, two blokes from Germany, want to start our “all American adventure” right this autumn - therefore we would like to go to the US in September and purchase & register some bikes in the Southwest.
Already aware about the possibilities as well as legal things we “just” need a local “home” address to use in the States (CA , AZ, NV or NM preferred) to get the paperwork/insurance things sorted. Is there anybody out there who wants to support us with a little local help/expertise and, much more, a (virtually) save haven for our bike registration (should not be for free, a German Beer donation is subject to negotiation )

There has to be someone out there with an address for you in the Southwest. You could use mine but am in the Northwest. Washington state only requires you pay them money, don't need an address.
Just thought I would post something and put this back to the top for you

hey wwwutz
I'm actually in a similar situation. I'm planning to tour America come september, starting in Florida, then towards Boston, Chicago, then down to California. Just became a member of this site to get some advice
I'm also currently confused as to the steps to register a bike. It would be great if you could share your learnings like what state you are registering in, what documents do you need, etc.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
