MVD trip turned out well

Yea here in Az. it's MVD, not DMV, but anyway I went today with my newly aquired xr650r and what a treat. I went to the inspection area, the lady said no inspection needed. So I go inside, and I asked to title and register the bike as well as my A/F and I wanted to get the MC liscence ball rolling. So I go to the window and lady asks me if the bike is a street bike or not. I said it is, and she gave me a street plate and registration for it. Then I asked about the licsense and she said I was already MC classified. I couldn't believe it, I've had this Az liscence for 4 years and never noticed that it said I had the MC endorsement. Apparently it carried over from Cali when I moved here. 
SO that's it, I'm ready to rock and roll on the Big Red Pig. I love the easy nature of the Motor Vehicle Department here. They don't want to see the machines, they don't do smog certification, they don't care if the bike has all the street legal stuff on it, and titles are 4 bucks and registration is 8 bucks. Unbelievable compared to Cali where you sit in a building for 4 hours with a gazillion foreigners sneezing and coughing in your air with children running around screaming and crying, and when you get to a window your lucky if the towel head even speaks your language.
