My new 50
Just bought this little fiddy to play on and just barely got it in running condition. When I bought it the front rim was bent really bad so had to order another one and mess with the carbs a bit. Still runs funky but really surprised me how it hauls haha. My question is though what are the laws about riding it in the city? I live in Arizona and from what I found on servicearizona the MVD website I need to get it titled, since when I bought it the guy had no title. I actually traded an old tablet for it. I can not find a VIN on this thing anywhere have looked for about an hour before getting bored. Where are they located on these bikes? Are they removable?

Re: My new 50
In case anyone else was wondering I had a talk with some people down at the DMV and to get a title for it I just have to go through some steps to get a bonded title. The DMV couldnt find a VIN on my bike so there just going to give me a title. Dont know if it has a custom frame or what but worked out for me.

It might be a custom frame, the vin is usually on tube where the forks pass through. But yes the DMV will give you a bonded title and a vin but theyre going to make you pay. I also Live in AZ and have a street legal 50:
To make it street legal, you need a front light, rear light/brake light, a horn, at least one mirror, and a license plate light.
Once you have the title you can then just go to the DMV tell them you have a street legal bike and need to get a plate... go through their little song and dance, pay the fee and their you go.

Re: My new 50
Sweet thanks! and ya they did say bonded title, said it would be a portion of the bikes worth. How much is a 50 worth according to DMV? I dunno.
Do you have a silencer on your bike? Mine is too loud so much so that when I ride it people get mad anyway to quiet it without hurting the bike?
Also did you have to throw a little battery and a switch and what not on your 50, if so whered you put it. You should put some more pictures up of your wiring and things so I could see. I am really interested in making my bike street legal.
