hey sb, welcome aboard
as far as the police are concerned, well I guess I'm a hardhead, if I know the law and they don't, I usually tend to push the issue with them. I'm not suggesting this is what you should do, by no means. I would have a copy of the laws concerning my motor bike and show it to them. The police here in Memphis though, they just laugh at us when we ride by. Me bro and I often pass them and they have never bothered us, and we never kill the motor near them either. It's like they just don't care round here lol and I love that.
good luck with 'em
and happy motoring

I think a lot of the Huffy bikes the welding is less than stellar. I've read several things where folks complained of the construction. I have two Schwinns that have not given me any structural grief.....................
