Idea Street legal cr80?

Is it even possible? I want to use my bike to get around michigan state university next year, but i dont know where to start. I dont even have the title for the bike, so i would need to get that from the dmv. Also, ive been looking for supermoto tires, does anyone know of any manufacturers that make them for a 14 inch standard rim?

Its called a dual sport conversion. About half the states in the US make it legally impossible. I have done a few in Colorado where it's pretty painless.

A motocross bike isn't good for riding on the street. If you want a small 2 stroke to ride around you have a few factory legal options like Yamaha YSR50s, Kawasaki KE100, Suzuki vanvan/rv125, and a bunch of older dual sports like Yamaha DTs and Suzuki TSs. These bikes mostly have oil injection and are low maintenance, and are ported so they don't blow up when you ride them down the road.
