Why !!!  Just go DLT test and get sorted out to make it legal.

It will only be confiscated eventually if you get unlucky.

Until it is 5 years old and needs inspection...

...the fuzz would have a hard time catching.  

Good luck.

It needs a DLT inspection because of the changes, if OP want[s to continue riding it OK get on with it.

Serviced the new ride.

Engine oil, gearcase oil, air filter (filthy)

Waiting on YSS to R and R the fork oil and replace brake fluid

Looked at the CRF and though I really must give you a clean today (we were up in the hills yesterday)...but ended up doing a 1000 and 1 other things. But, my new semi sintered pads turned up this evening so there is a very good chance she'll gets some TLC this week ????

Had the carb cleaned on the RX-Z.

150baht.

She's rippin' again.

Ordered colortune kit today for my bike, highly recommended for tuning multi carbs.

They say it will tune each carb the same, that will be good, so I hope it's as good as they say.

I've used a similar one for my carbs. Great tool.

Me too. Colortune is worth the money.

Sorry, have lost the video when adjusting the carbs. But here's a part of it.

You really have to read all about it, especially when working on a four cylinder bike. 

 

     All should be a healthy blue, once there's whitish to see, it's too lean.

 

    And yellow is way too rich.

 

When accelerating, carbs with an accelerator pump do show yellow, because the engine gets more gasoline from the carbs. 

The last job to change my fork seals was a joke. I had the whole fork in parts ad it turned out that the freaking Chinese seals were different.

 

   Once you have access to the seals and they're not in a very bad shape, it's possible to clean them thoroughly and oil them properly.

 

Of course only if the lips are still okay. 

 

    Result: New oil and fully functioning seals.
