    Radiator repair (broken tab) in Bay Area?

    The bike is a 1987 Husqvarna WR430. It has Winner Racing radiators (Chinese made, from eBay). On the right radiator the top mounting tab broke off. There are no leaks. Since this bike is so old, the only new radiator options are the Chinese made brands. Original ones on eBay are beat to...

    Legal to not register a dirt bike?

    Let's say you buy a new dirt bike from a dealer in another state and they ship it to you. And you intend to only ride it on private land, like Club Moto or 408 MX, and will never take it to a riding park that needs a sticker (so no trail riding). Would it be legal to never register the bike...

    Plates from different state, registrations questions

    I live in CA, and have a cousin that lives in Colorado. I'm thinking of buying a dirt bike there and get it Colorado plated (like a plated KTM 300) and leave it at my cousin's place. Then I can fly out and ride with him. That will be the garaged location of that bike. But, I might want to...

    Street legal dirt bike questions

    Hello, I recently purchased a 1980 dirt bike from a different state. When I went to DMV to have the bike verified and registered, they issued me a license plate instead of a green sticker. I pointed out (2-3 times) that it should be a green sticker, but the DMV guy was insisting it was a...

    Fines related to red/green sticker

    Hello all, A couple of people I know are putting green stickers from some other bike (like an old xr100 sitting junked in the corner of their garage) onto their shiny new "should be red sticker" bikes ... so instant green sticker. I figure they are in for trouble at some point ... I assume...

    FREE dirt bike videos

    Hello all, I have about 30 VHS video cassettes that I've recorded motocross and supercross on and now I'm cleaning up and getting rid of them. Goes back to 1997ish and covers a good amount up until about 2000/2001, then very spotty from then on. This is not a full set, I missed a few races...
