    I am looking at possibly buying a 2009 TE510 and bringing it to California, however I noticed something. The bike does not have front turn signals. Does it come stock without front turn signals? If that is the case, how can it be legal in California to ride on the road where you are supposed to have front and rear signals? I do not really have a problem putting turn signals on myself, but I am afraid California's strict laws will have a problem with that. Generally, bikes must come from the factory meeting the requirements to be legal in California which is why I am a little concerned.

    Any of you guys have any experience with something like this?

    They don't actually check it, the vin and title should tell them all they need to know. Throw some turn signals on there and you're good to go.

    Turn signals are just to keep the cops from messing with you. I have flush mounts front and rear.
