All you need now is a headlight and stator. Kool ride. I wish my bike was street legal. 8-)

Cool Bike, But it's a 88 or 89 model.

I might be wrong but it looks newer than an 87 to me :?

The subframe looks wrong to be an 87.

what did you have to do to get it street legal in WA?? I have been looking for years for a loop hole, the only one i know is with KTM 4-strokes.
