Question:

What does a motorcycle need to be street legal in MN?

I have a Yamaha fzr 600 that has been tipped a few times and only has one mirror, plus the only blinkers are on the back. The side blinkers are missing because (I assume) they broke off with the fall. It also does not have a windscreen.Anyone have a link to things a motorcycle needs to be street legal?

Try not to do that everyday, it 'll damage your hair anyway.
Headlight, Tail light, blinkers are optional. If you don't have them you MUST use hand signals. I have very small blinkers (front and rear) that I don't use very often, but I always use hand signals. Its better to have blinkers for night ridding. I think the law states you must have at lest 1 mirror. On that bike it might look kinda goofy with only 1 mirror.
4. For street-legal motorcycles: - if the motorcycle has a passenger seat, it must also have passenger footrests. 169.974 subd. 3 (a) - a rear view mirror, horn 169.974 subd. 3 (a), and muffler are required equipment. 169.69 - the headlight must be on at all times when riding. 169.975 subd. 5 (g) (i)Motorcycles are required to have at least one, but not more than two, headlights with both high and low beam. 169.49 (b) Headlight modulators are legal in Minnesota as an exception to FMVSS Title 49, Part 571.108. - a red tail light is required, including a brake or stop lamp. 169.50 subd. 1 A blue dot on the tail light of up to one inch in diameter is legal. 169.64 subd 4 (c) - at least one brake is required, front or rear, which may be operated by hand or foot. 169.67 subd. 2 Here you go, right from the source.
