for sale on that well known auction site...35 folks watching it. Currently sitting at $17,500.......
 
 
No bash plate or chain guard.. or is it too early?? Mind you, that's a : 'Buy it now' price, no?
 
I don't know, I am not real familiar with them, looks to be a nice example though.
 
Sure. Don't see many available very often. Yes, it does appear to be "buy it now."
 
Not a 100% accurate restoration (instruments, side stand, pipes and mounts, no chainguard), but a nice bike. $17,500 dollars worth? Depends on how bad you want it.
 
That's my Bike! I just stumbled across this thread trying to research P-11 VIN's. You're right Ron L about the side pipes. This is my sixth resto on P-11's . I just prefer the look of the side pipes. The original down pipes with up-swept mufflers go with the bike, along with many other parts. It came to me with the present side stand and works better than original P-11 stands I've encountered in the past. I'm trying to find the manufacture date as it appears to be a very early '68' due to the turned hubs on a P-11A frame. There used to be a thread here somewhere explaining all the VIN series associated with their corresponding years, but I can't find it. I've currently taken it off the "auction site" mentioned above till I can track down a title for this bike. I bought it with a bill of sale but want to sell it with a title, you can understand I'm sure. I bought this bike as an older restoration, running well but needed new carbs and too many other parts to mention. What i'm finding is the state of Ohio, Not my state or the state I bought it from, has the VIN listed as a scrapped vehicle, which is preposterous for such a fine example of motorcycling history. I just have to somehow convince the state of Ohio that this is not scrap! good luck to me right?

Yes, Ohio can be a tough state. However, if it has been rebuilt and you have records of the work done, a rebuilt title can be obtained. It will take a visit to an Ohio Highway Patrol inspection station with the motorcycle. Otherwise you will need to find a state such as Alabama and others that only require a bill of sale or offer a bonded title.
 
Thanks Ron, Yes I have contacted the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles and am awaiting a reply. if this turns out to be a dead end I'll contact the Ohio Highway Patrol. I'm only about two hours from the nearest one so that will be an easy way to go.
