    Legalising a Frankenbike

    Hey all, sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong section - newbie here. I've been riding for almost a year now, as a Hobbie, so I don't really know too much about bikes. I have been looking to upgrade recently, and came across a TradeMe auction for a custom CR125 with a Honda GN400 fitted. I basically just wanted to know IF it would even be possible to make this thing road legal, and what parts I'd need to do so. I have a rough idea that I'd need new wheels/tyres, lights all around, plate light and probably a new exhaust, but I just wanted some help with all of the other stuff, and too see if this is even possible. Thanks everyone!

    short answer is NO you will never get that thing legal on the road....
    Opinions are like arseholes: Everybody has got one, but that doesn't mean you got to air it in public all the time....

    Slightly longer answer.
    It's a pretty hard, of not impossible to get a dirt bike registered for road use unless the manufacturer also made road versions and certified yours for road use.

    Addendum. That far from stock you would have about as much chance as a snowman in the Mojave.

    Probably best to ask these type of questions before you bid.
