Hello,
I've been reading up on all the CA Stark Owners working on getting a Green Sticker for their bikes.
I pre-ordered the bike through Stark's website and was given the option to title and register the bike through their US dealer partner "Ekho Dealer" for a fee.
I took delivery of the bike on June 7th, 2024. Ekho dealer sent me paperwork/Power of Attorney documents to sign and FedEx back to their offices. They claim all of the paperwork was submitted to CA DMV on July 9th, 2024.
Getting impatient, I tried to go to the DMV myself to get a REG31 filled but the inspector wouldn't sign off without a VECI sticker, which the bike does not have, or MCO. I only just discovered the CARB memo to DMV today.
I was told that even attempting to register the bike would lead to its VIN being flagged and I would never be able to register it in CA ever if the application was denied.
I chose to wait for the Ekho dealer application to finish instead, but have no information as to its status in the DMV system.
Metcalf is only 10 minutes from my house, yet this $14000 bike is just collecting dust in my shed.
Has anyone else received their title and registration from CA DMV who went through Ekho dealer? How long did you have to wait?
