[QUOTE="gixxerjasen, post: 1302684, member: 20220"] Ok, so the problem is twofold for him. 1. In Texas, they stopped issuing inspection stickers and started using computers. You can't register your bike unless there's a current inspection in the computer database. Used to be you could do them separate but not anymore. 2. Also, you can't just register anywhere, it has to be in the county you live in. Otherwise I'd recommend to pop across the border, get inspection and registration done and haul butt back. That said, I have been able to get a 30 day temp tag pretty easily from Texas in the past. I bought a used bike that had been registered last out of state. That required a new inspection at the time including the sheet the inspector gives you to give to the state. I asked the folks at the license office how I could legally ride it to an inspection location and they told me to buy a 30 day temp tag. I did and all was good. I say, get your paperwork, then go down and talk to them but don't get the temp tag until right before you leave for the trip if there's some delay. Postpone Canada for another trip and have fun.
