Yeah I believe they're required in all states, haven't had mine for about 2 years but luckily since I live in Illinois the police aren't ***** about bikers like they are in some other states so I haven't had any problems.

you also have to have a reflector on the rear. but the cvc doesn't have a size so you can get those little round reflectors or a strip of red reflector tape and put that at the bottom of your license plate frame/cover.
