Joseph, that is one good looking bike (I'm too old to say it looks "sick") and I'm looking forward to watching you bring it to life.
Seeing as how CVC 406b says you need pedals will you have to register it as a motorcycle if you take them off?
Good question, I know some of the police around here by name, and am polite to the rest. My last bike had no pedals and the only thing they ever told me was that I needed working rear and front lights. They didn't even say anything about me not using a helmet, but I dress like I'm riding a motorcycle anyways, Boots, heavy pants, thick protective jacket. I follow the laws and don't do anything stupid to get a officer to notice me.
It is a grey area though and even though the officers that I see most often are pretty cool about it, there is always a chance I will meet an officer who doesn't like my bike, and I don't know what I would say to him about me missing the pedals either. So I do worry about that sometimes.
