    There’s three things I like about a person:
    1. Defeats the DMV.
    2. Rides dirt bikes on the road legally in front of cops.
    3. Hates Neal Diamond.
    2 out of three ain’t bad... lol
    Excellent job! I really enjoy your channel!

    Great job on getting the bike registered. A quick tip for changing bike tyres, get yourself a worn out car tyre from the junkyard ( something like a 205/65-15 is perfect) and use it to rest the bike wheel on when changing tyres. The bike rim is supported on the sidewall of the car tyre so it doesn't try to move around when you're working on it and the hub and brake/ sprocket is lifted off the ground removing any chance of damaging either.

  • @Ingaroo1
    @Ingaroo1 6 лет назад +5

    Wow, you guys have it tough in the states, I'm from Australia and all you need to do here to get a bike on the road here is to call up your local dodgy roadworthy fella (hes the guy who gives the bike the okay to be registered) then to head down to your local TMR (what we call the DMV in Australia) and give them the roadworthy form and your good to go, you have to pay a bit extra for a dodgy roadworthy's but its worth it if you have a dodgy bike, total cost $198 AU for 6 months rego. I had a bike with non DOT tyres, a horn that didn't work and temperamental indicators, I got it registered no problem, cops here pull me up and say nothing about my tyres etc. It's pretty chilled here. Thankfully.

    @5tr41ghtGuy 6 лет назад

    It's worth noting that in many states the DMV will not give you a plate until they check the VIN# against the state's database, and make sure the vehicle has NEVER been registered for off-road use only! Once you clear that, they will verify the VIN# on the bike, and check the odometer reading for consistency with prior registration. Some states require that the bike pass inspection too.

  • @TripleHelixed
    @TripleHelixed 4 года назад

    For anyone trying to register an old motorcycle without previous registration or no title, check if your state has a “statement of fact” form. I recently purchased a farm used 1981 DT175 that was never registered and having the owner fill out that form made the titling and registration process easy as pie.

    How in the world did you manage to register an old 2-stroke bike in California??? Not to mention the non-working lights, speedometer and no mirrors!! I live in California and I know CARB (California Air Resources Board) is trying to get rid of all 2-stroke vehicles including weed wackers and blowers. You are very lucky that someone at your local DMV office was slacking off on the job!

    Most American states don’t require turn signals to be on a motorcycle in order for it to be legal. That’s why they teach basic hand signals in every states driver training courses. You’re even required to know on your test what they mean to get your permit.
