I think I am going to order the DF250RTG when I get back to SWFL next month. It has the 165FMM (?) at 223cc.

What color? You will get a lot of attention when you get to take it to the Dragon!

Good question about the color. Black is probably best for touch up, I have a red TU250X, maybe white, not.
I say black for now.
I get a lot of attention with my TU at the Dragon. Most think it is a 1970s bike!

I looked into these and found out that they are not CARB Certified. So I can't register in my state. They are good looking bikes though.

I know states dance around the federal laws (obviously California with CARB, but apparently others), but this bike is certified 49 state street legal via the US EPA/DOT as an 'on-highway motorcycle'. It seems that every few years a few states state this as their law (basing it on California's CARB), then bikes get registered in said states, but then, as you posted, apparently the law comes to rear its ugly head! I wonder how they get away with it?!
