    We don't need to have no stinking turn signals here in N.C. (Nobody uses them around here anyway LOL) - and this may surprise some of you - you're allowed to have only one brake, if you're that crazy (like me). All the states are different on requirements, but most states will recognize out of state bikers home state laws.

    Why would the state care how many brakes you have?
    What about helmet laws? We are not req'd to wear one in Florida. I guess we believe in the "Darwin law".
    Have you been wearing your really cool looking bubble shield?
    I looked at my tranny and it has that little freezed plug looking thing also. I'm not sure what it is or does. I would clean it off and silicone it up to stop the leak.

    Most states prefer you at least have one brake on all vehicles,

    being able to stop is preferred LOL :roflmao:
