    Well after 12 hours of driving and an entire slew of issues yesterday, I finally have my first bike.

    Maybe you remember this post

    https://www.thetriumphforum.com/threads/help-new-motorcycle-buyer-questions.17711/page-2#post-271909

    Well, I chose to go to a different seller like most of you recommended . This was a long drive from Ohio to Sycamore Il. The bike looked and ran great he tied it down for me and I took it home. No lien, or title issues. I'm now a proud owner of a 2014 Daytona 675!!!!!! Thanks SOOOOOO much to everyone that steered me clear of the purchase I was willing to make with the seller in the other post. I dodged a bullet.
