It's still a sweet looking bike!
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

What do the inspections consist of..wish I knew, because I found that the back tire seems to be leaking, and it may be the rim (I think I'll go blame the shop that installed them) and they didnt catch the signal lights no blinking. Im pretty sure they are supposed to eh? Anyways, brought the bike to a back yard mechanic to get my fork seals and rear bearings installed. (they wanted 500 bucks to do that PLUS parts!! I dont think so considering the bike anint even worth that much. 100 bucks to the mechanic at work is better money in my books) so hopefully next week she'll be ready to go again! (I suppose my bike is a she now. why is that?) Ill let you all know what happens then!

In SK, the "inspection" consists of checking the VIN numbers on the frame and motor....that's it.
They don't care about signal lights, nothing...just as long as the numbers ain't from a stolen bike...you're in.
Works good for alot of guys who like to go up to Calgary to buy their bikes since most of the local dealers here are a bunch of twits...
