Dualsporting a CRF450x?

[Lonewolf]

Hey all,

Has anyone recently done a CRF450x or R dual sport/sumo conversion and gotten it plated? As far as I can figure I would have to apply for a BC assigned VIN and then get a provincial inspection. Is this correct?

As for the inspection I guess I need:

A proper running/brake lite
A hydraulic brake switch
Mirror (left side)
Horn
Switch pod
Turn signal/high beam indicator
Headlight w/ Hi/low beam
Turn signals

and of course DOT tires....

Am I missing anything here? just looking for some info from thos who have done it, heard there were a couple DS'd CRF's at the Orca run this last weekend and I decided its time to do mine!

Thanks in advance!

Pat

Nicely done! There aren't many Hondas around. Now don't tell Zulutango that you're taking the DRZ trinkets off! He he.

I'm sure he and his cohorts wouldn't know the diff between the DRZ stuff and the nice small, unobtrusive LED units that will be going on...

Yea...

DOT Tires + wiring harness (from vancouversupermoto.com) + your choice of signals... Basicly that's it
