The dealer certifies that the systems are operable and meet State standards. Then I could title it for the street. In other words, everything including the electrical has been checked once by my mechanic and also by a certified dealer (Seattle Cycle). This bike starts like it should, rides like it should and looks like it should. Does not leak a drop of oil on my garage floor. Has Washington collector plate - never needs tabs again. I can deliver at no charge this RT2 to a Seattle area shipping location to help the buyer as necessary. |

AMA Pro Racing Announces Basic Twins Flat Track Class for 2014 Season
Fri, 12 Apr 2013AMA Pro Racing announced a new class for Flat Track racing designed to provide a new stepping stone for up-and-coming Pro-licensed racers, replacing the Pro Singles class in 2014.

The new class will give young racers a chance to showcase their skills on Twins, easing their transition to eventually enter the Grand National Expert Twins class.
