I know the rear aren't DOT approved but I think the front tire is DOT approved. You figured out what tires you are going to get? Once you have it registered and tagged you could always put them back on.

It's kind of annoying having to spend an extra hundred bucks on tires just to register it, but it's about the only option for a bike that comes with competition tires.
I have a set of the K760's in my cart on e-bay I'm not ordering until I get the horn and turn signals operational. Which, I might face the wrath of my wife and drag the bike back in the living room to work out this weekend. Its in the 20's around here...I can't concentrate or feel my fingers to work in those temps...I'd rather face "The Wrath" lol
Jerry...the CT Inspection form specifically states.,."the vehicle will be rejected if any tampering with the sidewall lettering is detected" Apparently CT is already hip to your s**t
