Well since i dont have the title for the yz and i do have the title for the kz i'm just going to weld on or stamp the vin to the neck of the bike. Then i'll go register it and get a plate, then ride. If i ever get pulled over its just a custom kz550 with yz125 suspension and plastics on it. :laugh:

AAAhhh I thought maybe there was some way the motor serial would be used and that would make it legal. Not a bad Idea. I think I;m just gonna take my title to the counter and get a tag. The last time I got pulled over they didn't check my vin.

I like the tank, I have one like it made with a copper pipe. It works ok but I only get a couple miles out of it.

My gamer tag is loudhvx, but I'm almost never on. I haven't even been on Halo almost all summer.

The bike sounds good in the vid!
