Making A Bike Street Legal

turtlemann14 · 02-27-2008, 04:53 PM

this take can be complex if you do not know much about electrical circuits.

the first step is to figure out what your state requires you to have on your bike. your DMV should have information on what you need.

common item to have are: head and tail light, brake light(controlled by the rear bake or rear and front brakes), turn signals, mirror or mirrors, horn, street tires, and a place to mount the license plate

some bikes require a more powerful stator to handle the extra load
