Re: bike inspection
DO NOT go to a bike shop.................go to a regular place that mostly does cars. Good brake pads, tires, and one mirror for a pass. Blinkers aren't required, but if you have one you need all four, and they have to work.

Like he said don't go to a bike shop. I take mine to the local meineke. As long as ur tires are good and blinkers work I think that's all they really checked. Bike shops get anal about every lil thing

Re: bike inspection
From my observation, the best place to get a bike inspected is a shop that only works on cars, that way, it's unlikely that they will try to peddle you parts to pass inspection. The best place to get a car inspected is a shop that only works on Trucks/RV's for the same reason, they don't have car parts to push on you.
