If the police officer does a VIN check, is he concerned that you are even trying to register an off-road motorcycle? You bring these documents to your own DMV reports. I didn`t make up a false story about being on duty or staying with relatives. I was honest and explained the process and the steps I took. They`re going to question it, look in their book and see that bikes under 300cc in Vermont don`t get titles, only registration. 5 minutes later, they will issue you your State of origin sign and your own title. It requires the same old tricks as any other bike (taxes paid, insurance, proof of ownership like a sales contract). It`s a lot of work honestly. It`s expensive, so if you`re starting from scratch, choose the bike that`s right for you. I decided to wait for a good deal on Clist. I`m on Long Island and I want to sell one of my street-approved off-road motorcycles.
As good as the new Yamaha YZ400F from 1999. Installation for forest races with all necessary road equipment. Pm me so interested. What I`m hoping to do here is get my off-road title in a VT DMV and get something in return that I can put in a NY DMV to get NY road signs. Yes, if you have completed all the forms (with the VT inspection station indicating that it is now inspectable) and pay the fee, we can register and title the bike.

I spoke to a woman in Vermont DMV via email last week and she gave me this information. Here are my 2 cents on the road to Vermont.
I live in the Midwest, a state known for its restrictions on off-road motorcycles. I had an XR250R from the late 1990s only with a sales contract. When you download the Vermont app, it specifies all the requirements/restrictions for size, inspection, etc. Well, CT is closer than Vermont if I need to take a bike for an inspection. Thanks for the info. I don`t understand how Vermont can do this without a visual inspection, I`ll just call them and see what happens. Both bicycles received certificates of origin containing the words NOT FOR HIGHWAY USE or words to that effect. Does it have to pass the inspection at a DMV inspection station in Vermont before I bring it to the DMV, and is there a special form I need to prove the inspection? What do I need to bring to the DMV to register it? As stated, a valid inspection.
Is an MSO/MCO from upstate New York effective (since it was an off-road/road bike that has now been completely converted to a road bike with all DOT approved parts)? Would the WHO or the MCO who has a privilege over it cause problems? The privilege is in my name of buying the bike. Special forms since I would not be a Vermont resident or have a mailing address? I appreciate the help very much!! Oh, by the way, the on-road requirement for off-road motorcycle conversion in VERMONT is still a very gray area. I know VT doesn`t give a title to bikes under 250cc, but they do give you a certificate of origin. If you bring an out-of-state title with off-road right on it, will the CO they give you also just give you say off-road? I think I should have mentioned that I want to legalize a dirtbike street and not just beat it. So it seems like I need to know someone in Vermont to do it and ride my bike there. I`d be cool with it if I found the right bike, I just thought it could still be done in the mail. Allterra, I also live in Vermont. I have a title for my WR which has a bike on it. But because I bought the bike out of state, I have to do a VIN check. So how can I do that? Should the local police stop by my house and do this? Then have it registered, and then you have it inspected? I think that is the procedure, can you confirm that? None of the vehicle categories listed in the Vermont Motor Vehicle Code can be used to register a UTV for legal use on the road.

I live in Connecticut and Connecticut registered (for the road) my 2009 Yamaha WR-250F in November 2009, and recently did the same with my 2009 Honda CRF-450X last December. No problem. My bike came from TX, the title was just off-road. You must go to a status location. They will provide you with an affidavit stating that the bike has been legally converted for VT routes. Take that and your title to DMV and get your Temp Reg. (I already had insurance and drove mine), then take the bike to the police or DMV to have the VIN checked.

Now you`re on your way. Come to me and we can get started. I am sure this issue has been raised a few times, but I have to ask the question. I live in New York and I can`t just ride an off-road motorcycle with an off-road registration, which states will they stamp? I know Vermont would, I had found a message on a forum explaining the procedure, but it was a bit old and I heard they got into trouble for it. Are they still beaten out of statesmen`s off-road motorcycles? Any advice would help me, thank you.

Thank you for all the information. I`m a resident of New York State, but if I plan to stay at a family member`s residence for a few months in the summer and visit a few times a year and possibly leave the bike there, I plan to just register it in Vermont if I can, as that will probably be the only place it`s driven. So only to confirm one last time. This bike I bought is basically a 450cc off-road bike.
It has all the lights, road tires and equipment needed to pass the inspection. Although it has a manufacturer`s certificate of origin that says « off-road use only » and it has not yet been titled or registered, shouldn`t it be a problem to register when I fill out the inspection and all those necessary forms? Thanks again for the help, what if the bike is over 300cc but over fifteen years old. Second, a title is also not required, so could I get a spot without an inspection? I hope 1) First, you will need to take it to an inspection station or motorcycle dealership in Vermont and get a letter stating that the motorcycle meets the requirements of the road.

Not much unless you have to dress it up in certain places for a track or trail and that gives you a transferable inscription as I had no papers at all when I bought the bike to show some sort of property. In addition, the eye protection aspect of Vermont`s motorcycle helmet law does not apply to motorcycles equipped with a « windshield or shield » that many road-approved UTVs have. However, since a UTV does not meet the definition of a car bike or motorcycle in Vermont, it is up to local authorities to decide whether this applies to a road-legal UTV. You don`t need blinders, but if they`re on your bike, they need to work. Here in CT., if the bike has a certificate of origin that says it is not for the road, you need to modify the bike with the necessary parts to make it roadworthy, bring it to Wethersfield, CT. DMV office for an inspection, and once it passes the inspection, then you can register it like any other road bike.
