Essentials;
Asia - a horn, preferably loud, must work and work for hours each day of riding. honk  honk.
Europe, Australia and NZ - horn, indicators, brake light, headlight, speedometer, exhaust silencer, 2 rear vision mirrors. You can get away with some damage to these if recently done, but get it fixed before the same cop sees it again.
There are no exceptions to the asian horn thing ... unless you want to be totally ignored and driven off the road, not that it does not happen with the horn too. There may be exceptions to the Europe, Australian and NZ things .. but you would need to be a local to know the case and argue it. Best to 'fit in' rather than stand out and be delayed frequently.
