if you put slicks and blinkers on ur quad can you make it street legal? or is there more that u need to do

i dont think its legal in the US unless its utility for a farm

Posted by: 400exstud

Yeah its impossible.

Moped can go on the road but not ATV's

Ive heard that its legal in some states but ive checked into it and i know its not in illinios. My uncle in new york has a lisence plate on his and he said thats all they need there.

if it is snowing and there is more than 3 inches fourhweelers are legal.

If you have a fourwheeler that pushes 90 a police oficer cannot follow you any longer. legaly.

Altho highly not reccomended, if you arent wearing a helmet, a cop cant chase you.

I know all the tricks. I havent took my helmet off ever, but I have heard of it being done.

Back in the day in NH you could register a atv as a tractor, this was befor there where many quads. My dad has a atc 200 that has a tractor plate on it. It is still legal, when pulled over they look it up and it is a tractor. lol, My dad just has to register it every year, if he misses a year then he cannot do it any longer.

I havent riden it on the road tho, thing doesent run for crap. And tops out at about 30. boring.

I just got my 400 street legal. Over here in tucson I think you can legal any 4 stroke. Since mine is an 2005, the DMV didn't even look at the bike, they just gave me the plate. Ive seen a few other quads on the road over here also, mostly Raptors.

i would assume u would have to have it insured before u ride it on the streets

Posted by: alaskin 450R

i dont think you can get a quad insured. its gong to get abbused so i dont think that insurence companies would want to.

Im bringing my registration to the dmv and trying that, if they dont look at it they will never know. lol

all three of our quads are insured

Posted by: yub350

I pay $180 dollars for 6 months for insurence. They cover liabily, thief up to 8,000 dollars, and unisured vechicals. The insurence is good anywhere too, street, trails, and dunes.

i have insurance on my 450r to the point where if i wreck it they pay for everything. I have a 500 deductible though. Say i go and bend the frame, they buy the new frame with labor costs to replace it. If you put a dirtbikes rear swingarm on the quad then you can drive it anywhere if it has the lights and all that. I do know in arizona you can legally drive it on the road

I read in a mag one time that a guy took a raptor and modded it to just inside the laws limmits and took it across the country. they did a whole article on it with pictures of it and everything.
