Yeah, but a dirt bike can't keep up with a police car...off the line sure. Also, you can't outrun radios and since the cops record everything on camera all the would have to do is get a description of the bike and look into who owns that type of dirt bike. Then guess what...they impound your bike and have to go to court in order to try and not get jail time for reckless driving, operation a illegal vehicle, fleeing the scene, potential lawsuit for endangering the public, and resisting arrest, etc... but you can do what you want. Lol
I've had the same dream since I was younger as well. A 2 stroke dirt bike on the street. The only problem I see is refueling when you are away from home & all the tickets i would get for ripping like I was off road, so hard not to crack it open every chance I would get.

In finland we have to live with driving 50ccs with a traffic speed limited to 28mph and if your bike is able to go over 40mph you will get your license taken away + a hefty fine. So have fun while you can :)

Nice! You can also get a Beta 300rr (2 stroke), comes with everything you need to get it street legal (headlight/taillight, wired for turn signals and has a horn on the bike)and if your state is strict, just get it titled in south dakota and then transfer it to your state. The Beta 300rr has an oil injection system so no messing with oil and fuel mixing which is more beneficial for street.

Will it work on a 2003 125 yz??!!?
Having it done to my 2019 Husqvarna TE300i straight from the dealership in Texas. It's like waiting for Christmas morning!
Stumbled on this video as I was searching for conversion ideas.....and there was Chad!! Good to see you are still riding!! I remember the days chasing that YZ250 around!!
Man this took me back. I grew up in São Paulo city Brasil. Me and my homies, always rode a street legal Yamaha DT200 to stroke. They stopped making it and now it’s exactly the same like it is here in the us. Riding that 2 stroke heaven in the city streets was the best thing one can have growing up. Great vid. Cheers 🍻
Just finished my conversion for my 13 YZ450f to street legal, Thanks for being my inspiration! Maybe I'll see you on the roads around Washington! Ride safe.
Awesome man! Glad it worked out for you so well! You seem super stoked! Cheers!
OMG the YZ 250 is like my all time favorite dirtbike since the mid 80's! I had no idea they still made two strokes in 2018! This is SO awesome. 😀

Sweet You're Back! I love those bikes too.
One of the things that was nice about the beta is that it comes all wired and ready. All you have to do is plug in some turn signals and a flasher to the existing harness. Controls and everything are there already 🖒
Yes it is a young boys dream come true. I live a block from our city cop shop and run my Beta 300RR Race edition past them regularly. Having a 2 stroke plated is awesome and definitely had it's benefits. Especially sharing that 2 stroke smoke with the local traffic..lol 🤘😬🤘

Great job, man! Congrats on having your MX bike licensed! My guess is that my state (California) has additional requirements that make this conversion illegal, but it's worth investigating. Love your kit and installation ideas! I know what you mean about our love for 2-stroke bikes! I grew up in the 70s around CZ, Maico, Husqvarna, Ossa, Bultaco, Sach/DKW/Penton, Hodaka, AJS, Rickman Matisse, etc., and the closest street legal bike to a real MX bike back then was the Honda MT series, which was the street legal versions of Honda's Elsinore line (an absolutely kick-ass line of bikes!). Anyway, yeah man, that's awesome that you now have a great street legal REAL MX bike! Congrats again!

If you look around there are a couple of CA legal 2 strokes. Once upon a time ago they used to not look for the EPA sticker and issued out license plates for them and basically they became grandfathered in. After discovering their "fault" or whatever they've overlooked, now if your EPA sticker doesn't say "For on highway use" or it says "For off-road use only" you will not be issued a license plate. Can't wait to move outta CA!

Honda always ride red here, my dad has a 74 Elsinore Enduro street legalized. But dog next to 74 race. Then my pops introduced me to a clean all original Can-am mx250!!! The thing ripps faster down the street then my 2000 cr250r. Perhaps feels faster because no suspension so feel everything & low? Hit a 60ft+ table over triple with heel clicker, sketchy lol

Nice. So much easier in the UK. All we need over here is a brake light and a horn and then you can get a daylight M.O.T ( D.O.T to you guys ) The down side is you can only ride the bike in daylight hours.
OK I'll just skim thru this vid before I walk away from the computer, 17:21 seconds later I'm wanting to street legal my bike, at least I want to install the light kit, awesome video.
Nice video broth..! You help on my decision about rear tail light..! 😀👍
Very good video! Thanks for sharing and I'll be using this to do a supermoto!
Excellent video brother. I just got the bug to do the same thing so this video is perfect!
Those kits are so neat, every dirt bike needs that if not already equipped
Nice work I'm.working on doing the.same kit on my 18 yz125 I can't wait this helped me.out
Love your mentality dude. Sick bike !!

I did the street-legal conversion to a YZ450F '05, in Utah. My bike was a former AMA supercross race bike with no vin number on frame, factory race frame with no wet-sump oil in frame! It ended up being impounded by DMV after a inspection of vehicles at my shop, they thought it was shady despite what i told them. After providing my proof, I got my bike back, and the Utah DMV riveted a special custom vin plate on my frame to associate with its new title status, like its a custom-built motorcycle now. It was after I got the bike back I finished the full conversion to street legal status, used the same Tusk wiring harness. Safety inspection and its golden, great right. I gave the bike to a friend of mine in Cali! Now he has the only street-legal-registerable YZ450 race bike (supermoto) in California. I even own an '84 Honda XR500R framed bike and Utah DMV just told me they can't get me ownership of a lost title because the bike was never issued a title when new ('84 dirt bike)! BUT, if I convert bike and get safety inspection passed and bring it in.. I can get street-legal registration and that will actually be my proof of ownership also, with bike not having a title.

Taj Jacobs Interesting story about how you got your dirt bikes plated! I also have a 1984 Honda XR 500R I bought new from the dealership when I was 17. I can't confirm or deny any alterations to the original MSO but I got a plate when I presented it to DMV here in NJ. I still have the bike and did a complete remod of it last year after sitting in my parents garage for thirty years! It still had the original tires on it. Now it looks like a modern dual sport. 😉
Nice!! You did it. Sick af. THE DREAM. definitely a crazy one 😂 a must.

Welcome back man..;-p
Damn dude, you did a super sano job on your YZ, totally impressive. Looks kinda like a wiring nightmare to me but what do i know. I might just try this on my RM, thanks for the awesome vid!!
Great video thank you
Good content brother
PS. I do love the 2 stroke trail bikes /MX ers I had a Suzuki RMX250 with 6 gears and that bigger fly wheel is just absolute gold! Honestly if you're street/track riding see if you can source a Yamaha WR250R fly wheel for your bike! You can stand on the pegs and just putt past your mates up steep hills while they are nearly getting bucked off in power band. I just love that extra 6th gear and man was it a tall 6th gear 140km/r on 2000s MX bike is fairly crazy...11:1 compression and port and polish bore n sleeved shotpeaned and balanced assembly! I miss that bike so much
Good job. Great upload. Really informative. Finally a dual sport 2- stroke!!!! Put a bigger tank on, yr done. Good job. Ken
Very nice job thank you.
Sweet - good for you . Thanks for sharing
West Texas I'm going for it. Thanks Bro!
Beautiful, nice switchgear
I’m in Washington state too and have a street legal dirt bike as well!
Your dream is the same one i had 45 years ago with a Suzuki RM in the UK.. I rode fields with it mainly but the teen in me meant i chanced it on the roads occasionally One day a policeman in his car and a police motorcyclist were waiting for me.. i just jumped a ditch and took off over the fields.. never saw them again so luckily they didn’t know where i lived hey! Brilliant video i might still get a yam and the kit and go for it.. A fuel gauge would be handy though… I had a ktm exc and the thing was always out of fuel..

Awsome bro!

Awesome 😎👍
I got my 1997 WR 250 2stroke licensed here in Arizona. People give you the craziest looks when you fly by them on a 2 stroke
i live in santa cruz cali and the traffic is absolute bonkers out here, I'm taking a moto safety course soon and have a 250 lined up for purchase. i can't wait to zip around town down to the beach, up to the mtns on it!
Soo cool thank you for the tip I will check in my state if it is possible 👍👍👍
I think it's awesome and I'm looking forward to doing it to my bike
Wow this is going to be my next project , I just bought a WR250R last year because I didn’t have the money to get the YZ250 + a kit like you got so I now I have regrets!!! I should have saved my money , damn you Bike is sweet and it has so much upside potential!!!
I want this setup, im looking forward to this summer riding with my predator helmet and my 250 2 stroke. So hype bro ur video was very inspirational. Ill be riding everyday possible to work being that i drive maybe 30 miles to work. Looking forward to the crazy looks like dudes on a dirtbike yo hype 💯💯💯

nice, i did a similar set up with my DRZ250. you passed inspection without DOT tires? idk what speedo you have but trail tech vapor is the way to go, has tachometer, engine temp, miles, ect. also a tip on those mirrors, i have the same ones, place them on the under side of the handle bars (facing toward the ground) makes visibility soooo much better.
Kool and thanks. This really helped my make up my mind. I live in WA so you answered many questions. Now to decide 125 or 250. Yamaha, Honda or Kawasaki? Suzuki is not even a thought. Peace from Hoods Canal.
Makes me want to move to Washington!
Awesome for sure going to do this
Awesome. Thanks.
Hell yeah I did this to my yz426f!! My 02 kx250 is next
I've been having dirtbike dreams my whole life. Some of the best dreams I've ever had. Then I wake up and I realize it just a darn dream and I'm gonna be late for work again
Nicely done, I like that "other" states do not require the blinkers or even an inspection. Up to the end user to install all equipment and know the law. My personal bike is a 2004 YZ250WR/DS, I am building a 2003 YZ325X/DS kit (to be installed), and have 2 2003's ready to assemble and DS (they will be for sale). Damn right they are fun to rip down the tarmac. Set of street wheels is in order. Hahaha

Before CR500 production ended in 2003 (they stopped importing them to the US after '01) they were sold and street legal- in Australia. Had full lights, mirrors, etc.
I was born in Washington and once u said Washington allows this I want to move asap I wonder if u can make a banshee street legal, Idk but I liked the video and you earned another sub 😊😊😊
Dope VW van! I have a 2012 yz450f probably going to make her street legal as of rn she’s strictly dirt
Sicacuss racing in michigan has a kit with head n tail light battery powered. Comes with head light n tail light n rear fender drop thst bolts on. Plus brake light bango bolts to run brake light. And a horn. I use this on my 07 kx250 that has no available lighting kits.
Wow excellent job. I want a yz250x but I will admit I dont know how to do this conversion as well as you did. I am getting a ktm and avoiding having to do this but damn I would rather have a yz.
Nice! I just bought a new 2021 KX450 last Saturday. Do I have to change the stock tires before having the dot inspection?
Nice and your from Washington state... Make me want to make my raptor street legal

Great video man! I just got a rolling frame of a 2004 YZ250F that I'm going to build into a custom street legal woods bike. And what part of WA are you in? I'm in the Bremerton/Silverdale area if you want to go ride!
You might have been about to use a kit from an it250 / dt200r .. powerdynamo makes an adjustable innert rotor kit for those
Hey man great vid. I'm about to do the same to my yz250. Out of curiosity which bike did you select for the tusk kit? It shows it for the 250f and 450f and not the yz250
Funny enough. I just bought a really done up 1998 WR250 T2. Planning to do the same but go for motard wheels.
