OK, so I’m actually most of the way through this. I ordered a Kikker 5150 Hardknock back in September of last year and built it on my porch and in my driveway. The bike runs and is mechanically sound and I’ve ridden it a bit, but I still need to get a few things worked out before I can make it legal.
The turn signals don’t flash because the flasher is burned out. I’m hoping I can get a new one under warranty… we’ll see.
The aftermarket speedometer I got doesn’t work as wired off the magneto because it’s not getting steady power. I need to figure out how to wire it off the switch.
The state requires 2 mirrors and the crappy little one that comes with the bike is useless anyway, so I need to get a set of mirrors and screw them on. I already have the adapters I need to install a set of standard 10mm mirrors in place of the 8mm Yamaha thread mirrors the bike is designed to accept.
Once all that’s done, I need to take the MSO and invoice and try to get a title for it. Then I’ll finally be legal :)
