(this is first hand)

02 49 state bike, now registered in CA.

DMV requirements -- stock exhaust, bring title (it's easier when bike 
will be retitled -- there is such a thing as a family transfer of title, 
which isn't taxed), bike will need 7.5k on the ODO, else it is 
considered a new vehicle (and taxed appropriately).  Best done before 
reg expires (legally speaking, it must be done within 20 days of vehicle 
arriving in the state, but everyone seems to fib about that).

Make appt at DMV, plan for an hour there.  There will be a numbers check 
on the bike.  Make sure numbers match.  DMV absolutely must see the DOT 
and EPA stamps on the bike and exhaust, along with VIN and engine number.

Good luck.
