Title: How do you make your off road bike street legal?
Post by: Trail guy on November 07, 2015, 08:35:11 PM
I know that several on here have bikes that were not originally street legal.  Were these bikes purchased out of state already made street legal, or are people registering their bikes out of state and just using out of state plates? I believe that this was covered on the old forum but I would like to know the process involved. Have an xr400.

Thanks in advance

How about an introduction or re-introduction first? Then we will revel the secret.   ;)

All right I have re introduced myself so I am itching to know if this is something I can easily do or am I biting off a mega money endeavor.   Thanks all.

I got one for my KTM300 and several others have done the same. It didn't take very much money or time. Just make sure you follow the directions. I'll post some of the info that I used

Here is the thing, I think the consensus is the we don't want to post up the entire process of this particular trick so that the Alabama DOT system is not clogged with title request for non-street titled, dirt bikes from another state. Don't want to raise any red flags so we are trying to let most figure it on your own, I did it twice without any help. Google is your friend! One tip, if you have the original MSO makes it a little easier.

Or schedule a flash mob, and maybe somebody will give you all the details over a cold one.  ;)

I Appreciate the leads and I understand not putting the whole treasure map in one place so to speak.

That would be great we could go riding. Been working on cleaning the trails up from storm damage. Got them all cleared now
