[QUOTE="Rolls, post: 65814, member: 28"] Nowadays, at least here in Cali, it makes no sense to buy a off road only bike unless it's a race only machine. Even if it never sees the pavement, there are a lot of off road areas that are open only to street liscensed vehicles. Having a plate just gives you so many more places to ride, and with the way OHV areas are shrinking, that's all the reason needed. Take off the mirrors and the turn signals stalks. Some people put a low profile light on in place of the stalks, but if you really aren't going on the street, then don't bother with it. The liscense plate may need to be re-mounted. They usually are mounted too low from the factory and get ripped off during off road use. It's easy enough to just bolt it directly to the fender if you don't want to get creative. If you do decide to get an off road only bike, I hope you really like whatever it is that you get. Because you probably won't be able to sell it without a plate. :prof: [/QUOTE]
