Man, I just looked at mine the other day and it's 5 months out of date. Oops!
Having just moved here (and procrastinating on the whole tag-inspection thing) can you guys tell me what they look at? I'm not really worried about the bike (still curious) but my car has it's check engine light on - is that a problem?
got my xr650l inspected yesterday, it's blue.
I went to the same place with 2 different bikes, one employee handed me the sticker and said they were not suppose to put it on. The second time the guy said they had to put it on. Go figure!

just go to auto zone and have them clear the code and then drive straight to the inspection station. Chances are it won't have come back on by then
+1, Just clearing the code ain't gonna do the trick. Usually takes 10-30mi to get those monitors to turn on.if it is a OBD2 car that could be a problem as faults set failures on the drive cycle test and clearing a code may require you to run a drive cycle before it passes the test.

I didn't say how many would come back on in those 10-30 miAlmost right. You're allowed to have up to two sensors that haven't turned themselves back on, and still pass. That said, just clear the one code and not all of them, and you should be fine so long as you only have one or two sensors not working, so long as the rest are.
