    Street Legal 350x help

    Hi all, after finally graduating college I decided to sell the 480r. I've since picked up an '85 350x. I saw a street legal one riding around town awhile back and would love to get mine titled for road use. Has anyone tackled something like this? I'm in the state of Michigan now but I can get the trike titled in Ohio if need be. Thanks for any advice.

    It depends on what state you are from

    Here ya go:

    Off-Road Vehicles Cannot Be Registered For On-Road Use

    Vehicles manufactured as an off-road vehicle (ORV) cannot be modified and titled as an assembled vehicle for on-road use. A vehicle manufactured as an ORV, even if the owner added accessories such as lights, windshield, and street legal tires, does not qualify as an assembled vehicle, including a low-speed assembled vehicle, because:

    It was not built from new or used parts by someone other than a manufacturer, and
    It was not altered or modified to the extent that it no longer reflects its original manufacturer configuration.

    ORV manufacturers state their vehicles are not designed for on-road use and include a statement on their Manufacturer Certificate of Origin (MCO) that the vehicle was built for off-road use only. ORVs that cannot be titled and registered for on-road use as an assembled vehicle include:

    a) 4-wheel and 6-wheel ORV utility vehicles. These units look like small trucks with a roof. Examples include the Polaris Ranger, John Deere Gator, Kawasaki Mule, Yamaha Viking, Honda Pioneer, and Kubota RTV.

    b) 4-wheel all-terrain vehicles (ATVs). Often called "quads," these are units with handlebars and a seat straddled by the operator.

    c) Three and four-wheel ATVs often called "quads."

    d) Dune buggies manufactured for off-road use only.

    e) Gray Market off-road "mini trucks." These are imported as ORVs rather than motor vehicles. It is not possible to upgrade them to meet U.S. EPA emission standards and DOT safety standards. They can only be titled as an ORV. Examples include the Suzuki Carry, Subaru Sambar, Honda ACTY, Mazda Scrum, and Daihatsu Hijet.

    Vehicles whose MCO show the vehicle was built to federal low speed vehicle standards may be titled as a low speed vehicle using the year, make, and VIN shown on the MCO.

    Trail bikes (2-wheel motorcycles) may be upgraded for on-road use.
    Doesn't anybody know how to search this official information up thru the State government ATV rules and regulations?

    It took me all of 15 seconds.

    TL/DR. Waaaayyyy too many details. Could you condense it a bit more?

    There are now more than a few counties in Michigan that allow off road vehicles to ride on class "B" county roads. Insurance/title is not required, however, you do need to display an orv sticker (permit) on your machine. My county asks that you wear a helmet (obviously), operate at speeds of 25mph or less, and ride to the far right of the road. In addition, a usfs approved spark arrestor and working headlight and taillight are required. This is the easiest route if you live in an "atv friendly" county and are just looking for additional area to ride.

    I'm guessing you want to use your x for daily transportation anywhere you want to go...can't be of much help there...good luck. It was stated above, Google search is your friend, and maybe you will find some loopholes. The only way around this that I can see is if it's a 2 wheel bike that was titled for the street and converted into a trike like we've all seen done on here in the past. Again, good luck.

    In Arizona you can make a 3 wheeler (and 4 wheeler) street legal--I see them occasionally. I've been wanting to do it but just have gotten around to it. It's on the to-do list though.
