That's what I would do. If you have your endorsement already just do it right. Also if you get into an accident riding "dirty" your insurance company or if you hit someone their insurance is gonna go after you and you could even get sued. Just be responsible. Not sure how laws are there but here in maine you can register a motorcycle as an antique if it's over 25 years old. Dont have to do a state inspection. Just have to sign an affidavit saying you are not using it as your primary mode of transport. Have to have another vehicle registered also not as an antique. Costs me the same to register and insure a motorcycle as it does a moped here. Sucks
