Default Legality issues?

Not having turn signals? Is it illegal, I figure if you hand signal or just don't get caught you're fine, am I right?

What about side mirrors?

Turn signals are not required, but probably a good idea since cagers don't know what the hand signals mean and try to run you over.

At least one mirror is required. Just because you get away with not having them now dosen't mean a cop wont give you a ticket for it if he stops you for something else.

Oh yea, I completely understand the fact that I could get a ticket for it. I would prefer to have them as a matter of fact. It's just the fact that the bike doesn't have them installed and I would have to get new ones, which I do know do not cost much, 10 bucks from ebay.
I plan on putting both, mirrors and signals back on, just a matter of waiting on delivery time.
