Posted December 5, 201113 yr I am thinking of getting a wr450 and making it street legal. Once I do the signals and mirrors do I just register it as a street bike or what?
December 6, 201113 yr Where in the world are you? If youre in the UK buy a legal one. Its easier. And you dont need lights or mirrors to legal.

December 9, 201113 yr No legal requirement for mirrors, and if a vehicle has no lights fitted it will pass with an advisory note saying so. Thus the bike cannot be used between dusk and dawn or in bad visibility.

December 10, 201113 yr If you build your own bike you may have to have it type approved, or have an SVA, depending on how much it is your own build. In this case it may need lights to pass the approval before mot. I am unsure. But for cars to pass an SVA, they have to be absolutely spot on.
January 9, 201213 yr Im pretty sure you have to have something like a rear running light or brake light and a horn at least but headlight, indicators and mirrors arnt needed on a dirt bike to be road legal but will only have a day time mot.
