Yes it is legal to ride around with no hood, but just **** lucky to get away with the test drive. I have driven buy a few cops and had no trouble with them yet, I just smile and keep driving.but if I keep it up I will be sure to have trouble
I have gone back and watched that test drive vid a few times. I really like the way the engine spins like my 525 KTM dirt bike on soft ground! That red PU truck at 7:15 must not have been looking as he was dead in your sights.
Yeah, the cops are gonna know you pretty well. Better invest in a box of donuts and make friends. Spinning 13" tires up to 7K like it's nothing... must be a real hoot.
I can't help but hear the lyrics from the Beach Boys song "Little duece coupe"... it gets hard to steer when I'm getting rubber in all four gears!
