Nearly impossible if it's not the newer version that had more emmisions available (and already passed). Can't remember the specifics but I bet if you can check with the DMV for the area you're moving the bike to might be a good place to start.
1987 yamaha vmax w/30000 kilos for $1999-from british columbia and now is in palm springs. It has been sitting for 5 years and i got it running for him today.
Pretty sure price will go up now.
If you can get it done, it'd be a great talking point - that you have one of the rarest Vmaxes in the USA. I'll bet there aren't too many of the 87's that ended up imported to here.
