Thanks for the props! Here's the skinny:
You can import a R32 from Canada for pretty cheap now. If you do your own work and have a shipping connection, getting one here wasn't, I mean, isn't that expensive. Again, doing your own work you can get it to pass the smog check pretty easy. My father got our 1978 Caddy to pass MN smog without cats. You will need a tuner (F-Con, PowerFC, MoTec, etc) to detune the 'Line for shitty corn juice gas. After that you are home free. You can register it now because MotoRex did the crash testing of the Chasis. Before they did that you would have a bigger problem. You could have still driven it on the roads but mileage limits and special conditions applied. Some states wouldn't have allowed you to "operate" that beast on state highways or interstates. But that's the story on all race gas
