All you need to make a quad street legal in Arizona is one mirror, a horn, and a license plate light. So about $30 and an hour later I was all set! :riding:

Welcome Brandon. Must be nice to have year round weather. I'd love to see the look people give you when they see you on the street on your atv

Hi I'm Ed! noobie to the Yamaha Forum and I'm into scooters. Anyways I have just purchased an alleged wrecked 2007 Yamaha C3 which turned out to be in perfect mechanical condition except for a dead battery and both F/R fenders bring smashed plus a flat rear tire from a seemingly major accident. The owner got rid of it thinking it's beyond repair since he can't even get the wheels to turn end up being the rear fenders got stuck into the rear wheel. To make his case worst when started the scooter a month after the accident, the engine won't turn. In short we found each other conversing and I end paying $300 for parts allegedly. Two later as I was wasting some time in Ebay, I came across a 2006 Yamaha Vino 125 cc again wrecked from an accident with salvaged title as claimed. The seller had a starting bid of $100 no reserve and a "buy it now price" of $400. I waited till the end of bidding and placed $102.50 and won it. I'm from Vegas so I drove to Bell, CA to pick it up and discovered that the original owner just ask the seller a favor if he can sell the bike at Ebay. Same luck came about and that the bike has actually a clean title but because of the nature of the accident I condemn this Vino dead upon purchase therefore it's engine will be transplanted to the C3. Watch out for the project........I'll post the build.
