Well I cleared a major hurtle today with the XTR 250... It passed the CT DMV inspection. :tup: Now the way is clear for registration, all I have to do is add the bike to my insurance, then go back to the DMV pay the tax, the registration fee and they'll hand over my plate. :)

The XTR 250 T4 needs a few things to pass the CT inspection. Its mostly equipped with what it needs to pass but will need DOT approved tires, red rear and amber front reflectors added. Also, CT charges an $88 "composite vehicle" fee that will need to be paid at the DMV before the inspection is done.

This is load off my mind.

:yay: Pitster Pro XTR 250 successfully plated in Connecticut :yay:

Added the bike to my Progressive Ins. policy on-line last night....Took the paper work to the DMV this afternoon, $263 later they handed me over the shiny, new plate.
I got home and promptly took the Pitster for a spin....I really enjoyed getting it out and stretching its legs for the first time...now for some dirt...

Can you add music to it. Like Born to be wild from Steppenwolf. Then call it done.

Even "Born to be Wild" could't make riding around Bristol, CT interesting.... LOL
If I was off-road with some good scenery the music over might work but not with the footage I got today. Sometimes I hate the GoPro
Voice over isn't going to fly either, motovlogs just aren't the same without the bike's voice in the background.

Sorry, buddy....I guess you'll have to suffer with an eveRide ADV vid or something tonight... ;)
