Is the Orion RXB 125XL street legal in California?
I found this bike from Orian: https://www.orionpowersports.com/ori...embled-tested/
It looks very fun, and I'd rather buy this than convert my bd125 into a off road version. I called them and they said that they didn't know if it was street legal here in California or not. Do any of you have the bike? Last edited by JoeRivers; 10-03-2019 at 02:56 PM. Reason: Miss spelled a word. |

If they don't know, then it is probably not carb certified :/

A person must be very careful falling for the websites that say "CARB Certified".
The best rule of thumb is this: If it's Chinese and not a CSC TT250 or an SSR XF250, that CARB certification they advertise is most likely "dirt only", regardless of the bike looks street legal. It's just a matter of time until more of these China bike builders jumps on the CARB bandwagon. It's a huge market with tons of money.

2LZ, you're spot on. This forum saved me when I was first looking for a China bike. I was drooling over the hawk. As well as models that said CARB approved. Then I realized it was Green sticker CARB. Green sticker meaning it cannot legally be used on highway and is restricted to OHV areas.

The one and only drawback to buying from a local dealer is that they have to mark up their inventory to pay for the brick, mortar, service department, and employees.
