I have a gs850 1980 suzuki that I will probably never ride. I never should have bought it in the first place: I paid 200 dollars, sight unseen, crashed and with a lost title.
I now believe that the title will never appear.
I have put on new handlebars, replaced the instrument cluter, cleaned the carbs, unbent, lubed, etc., etc.
I guess all I get out of it is the pleasure of having done it.
Once it is running well, I will probably sell it as a parts bike complete or part it out on Ebay.
Someday I'll actually get to ride a motorcycle.

More Business
Our business partner took actions that led to feelings of betrayal. He put out two dresses for quotes at a rival business because he thought our prices were too high.
It was hard to deal with, because we thought the deal was that he would send business our way for a fee. Oh well, he has a lot on his mind and other business obligations that are at odds with our mutual business.
Eventually, we will partially sever ties: now, all orders are initiated through him. We need to be able to deal with orders directly and we soon will.
Eventually, it will all work out, but right now things feel a little bleak. It doesn't help that my other business is at a virtual standstill.
I love my participation and am seeking to expand it: I need to be more involved with the record keeping and the calculations. We pay the state sales tax, but it does not show up on the invoice -- I'm not even sure that that is legal. It makes things complicated because the sale price of the dress is made up of the following:
material
stones
labor to build the dress
labor to count, process, and glue the stones
supplies
state tax
a percentage to our partner
a fee for design
So here is the question -- on what part of the this all do we pay sales tax?
I'll go now and try to look it up.
