Yamaha WR450F

Motorcycle Law question: How do you make a Yamaha WR 450 F street legal? Answer have a C or 3 in the 8th digit of your serial number and your home free.

Street legal in Idaho

If you are wanting to park it for a while you will need an ignition switch. I got mine from Baja designs it was part number 12-8001

For Idaho all I need is a brake light, mirror, and horn.

The 2005 WR450 has a two filament tail light so all you need is a brake light switch for the foot control. Baja Designs sells a kit (part number 14-9000)

I also needed some street legal knobby tires

I chose the Dunlop D606

passenger pegs

I also wanted foot pegs in case a buddy needed a lift. I found them at Baja designs part number 21-0078. There was no picture, but they look like the footpegs for the XR450
