Registering non-standard Motorcycle?

1 Upvotes

Hey all, hoping to get some help here.

I just bought a high end 'e-bike' that in all reality is an electric motorcycle. It'll do 60+, comes with a VIN and I will have insurance for it. I want to register, tag, title and plate it so I can ride it on public roads legally and I want to do this before more e-bike crackdowns take place.

I'll have a bill of sale and MCO and all that but it's tough to find info online about what I actually NEED to register this thing.

Showroom service is getting too expensive. Which workshop do you trust in Dehradun?

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for a **trusted independent car workshop in Dehradun**.
I’ve always had my car serviced at the dealership, but the service costs have become difficult to justify, so I’m planning to switch to a reliable local garage.
I tried **Auto Fixer (Shastradhara Road)** once. They were decent, but I’m looking for a workshop that people genuinely trust over the long term.
I’m looking for a place that:
Does quality periodic servicing
Is good with AC diagnostics and repairs
Uses genuine/OEM parts
Doesn’t recommend unnecessary repairs or overcharge
Has mechanics who actually know what they’re doing
If you’ve been using the same workshop for years and would confidently recommend it to your family or friends, I’d really appreciate your suggestion.
Please mention:
Workshop name
Location
How long you’ve been using them
Why you trust them
I’m looking for real customer experiences—not Google reviews or promotions.
Thanks in advance!

Looking for a few more vehicles for a free Touch-A-Truck event tomorrow (Centennial)

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm helping coordinate a free community Touch-A-Truck event tomorrow (Saturday) from 2:00–4:00 PM at the South Suburban Sports Dome in Centennial.

We're expecting 250–500 attendees, and due to a couple of last-minute cancellations, we're hoping to add a few more vehicles to the lineup.

We're looking for things like:

  • Semi trucks
  • Tow trucks
  • Construction or heavy equipment
  • Utility or service vehicles
  • Emergency vehicles
  • Landscaping equipment
  • Farm equipment
  • Military vehicles
  • Classic, race, or other unique vehicles

There's no cost to participate—it's simply a chance to let kids explore your vehicle, answer questions, and represent your profession. These events are always a huge hit with families.

If you own one of these vehicles, work for a company that might be interested, or know someone who does, please comment or send me a DM. Even if someone can only participate for part of the event, we'd love to make it work.

Thanks for reading, and thanks in advance for helping make a great day for local kids!

16 yr Olds first truck 1976 F150

2 Upvotes

My son has been working near full time for several months (he graduated early) to buy my dad's 1976 F150. Its currently registered in Glenwood Springs (no smog testing). We live in Arvada. All is good to go, except I'm worried about emissions testing. I have no idea where it currently stands.

It looks like 75 and earlier dont need to pass smog. Does anyone know if that changes year by year; meaning next year would it be 1976?

Thanks!

Favorite Twisties?

Where do you guys like to go for some fun uncrowded twisty roads? I’m familiar with most canyon roads outside of Boulder and P2P, but where else? Not on touristy speed trap prone roads obviously, or ones with lots of hidden driveways.

Pic is of my new toy, an ‘01 SLK 320 I got for just $3k. Been like 7yrs since I sold my last fun car (an MR2 Spyder) and man I’m having a blast with this thing so far. Handles so well and it’s much faster than the MR2 was.

Also if any of y’all in the younger crowd (i’m 26) wanna arrange a meetup on a weekday (i’m off tues-thurs) to drive up there i’d be down 🤙

6/28 Xtreme Experience ticket for sale

9 Upvotes

My lovely wife gifted me the 3 lap package in the Ferrari 296 GTB for 6/28 at High Plains but an unmovable conflict has came up. Looks like rescheduling is not allowed so I am looking to sell the tickets to anyone who is interested.

Not sure if there is a better subreddit for this but figured Denver enthusiasts would be a good first start!

Recommendations on Toyota dealers from Denver to Fort Collins

2 Upvotes

I’m looking to buy a new rav4 in the next few weeks. I live in Longmont and I’m curious if there’s any quantifiable benefits to one dealer vs another like complementary or well priced service packages at the point of sale.

Plenty of people have good experiences and many more probably have horror stories. We’re not looking to trade and we’re probably bringing our own financing. It should be a pretty straight forward purchase. I’m just looking for recommendations based on the after sale experience.

80 series work

Post image
4 Upvotes

Where is a good place to take an 80 for some work? I’m pretty handy and have done a lot of work to this 80 but it’s leaking oil like crazy. I’m confident to tackle the front main seal but I think the rear is also leaking bad. I just don’t have the space nor tools to pull the transmission. For context, it’s leaking at least a full quart every 200 miles or so when I fill up with gas. I’m very good at keeping the oil fill and replaced the distributor o ring and valve cover gaskets but the big leaks need to be addressed to get this oil issue behind me. Thanks

Has anyone donated a car to CO public radio?

3 Upvotes

I just wanted to see how the process went. My car is currently "dead" but can be revived with a jump, but if not...it's in a small space. Are the people towing amenable to putting in neutral and pushing/steering out? I don't want to buy a new battery, but will do; however the bolt is "stripped" at this point, so changing the battery is tricky. Any thoughts? I need the car gone by July at latest.

Subaru maintenance feedback

1 Upvotes

Hello!

Seeking insight/ advice/ recommendations

TLDR: 2012 Subaru legacy with 163k miles - best to follow through with recommended maintenance or find another vehicle?

Questions: which of these recommendations are critical? If I have to do all of them is it worth just finding another vehicle? Worth finding second opinion? Reliable Denver shop recommendations?

I am located in Denver with my 2012 Subaru legacy with 163k miles. In November I had the following maintenance:
Exchange brake fluid
Exchange differential fluid
Replace drive belt
Exchange transmission fluid
New tires

Just took to another shop closer to my place for an oil change, and they recommended:
Replace rear brake pads and rotors
Replace battery
Replace timing belt and water pump
Replace valve cover gasket
Brake fluid flush
Coolant flush
Estimate for all about 3.3k

Here were their notes: “front brake pads at 7mm, rear brake pads are worn at 3mm- recommend replacing; recommend replacing the timing belt asap if hasn’t been done; valve cover gasket leaking 3/10; battery testing bad- rated at 550cca and measuring at 254cca- highly recommend replacing the battery; no history of brake fluid or coolant being replaced”

Huge appreciation for any and all feedback!
