    I'm not sure who the owner is, but the bike looks cool.













    I have never done that before (cough cough, about a hundred times)

      The exhaust looks like the Jimco system I had on my TT 500.

        Hmm, no turn signals, but it's licensed. Is that legal in CA. They don't do safety inspections there yet do they?

          Nope. In fact I don't know that you even have to have them. They still make you show that you know how to arm signal for your drivers liscense.

              CA inspection

              Removing any OEM safety equipment is illegal here, but if it was manufactured legally with out then it's still street legal.

              Once upon a time (69/70) the CHP and local police used to set up road side "safety" inspections on main roads. (roads with more than one lane each direction) At that time they issued fix-it tickets if they found anything amiss, including any obvious tampering with smog devices. Got a ticket for not having all my lug nuts .
              Had mags on the car and had miss placed the lock lug nuts. Don't think they made enough money off it so it was discontinued.
