Bike...

Frustration:
Red sticker info

In california you have to have a sticker on an offroad vehicle to use it offroad. It is a sort of licence plate. There are two colors red and grean. Green is great. It means you can ride year round with out any problems. The cost of the sticker is used with 1% of the state gas tax to maintain off highway vehicle parks. The red sticker is evil. If you have a vehicle with a red sticker you only get to ride it half of the year. The big problem is that only a small handfull of offroad motorcycles qualify for a green sticker anymore. To make matters worse, any bike sold as a motocross bike is automatically a red sticker. This includes bike that have a 100% twin for trail riding that is green stickered like the YZ/WR line. The good news is all 2002s and earlier were re-mapped and are now all green stickered... I guess I'm buying a used bike.
