Default DMV blues
So I got an 08 Night Train around Christmas which has been sitting in the garage. Today in CT they were calling for 45 degrees and sunny skies. Went to the DMV to get it registered first thing this morning and they were closed due to MLK day on Monday. Got home, took the plates off my Honda 750, put them on the Harley and out I went. A little illegal but it felt good.

Illegal always feels good!
Especially when you get away with it.

Hey a friend of mine has 3 bikes and only 2 have plates, he is always swtiching them around. Not many police know one bike from another, as long as you have a current plate on it it's ok. It goes for trailers too.
