bigboybanshee Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 That would be cool, but odds are it won't happen... I truly don't see any reason why they shouldn't allow it, they are no more dangerous than a motorcycle!! Who knows!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

streetshee Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 in two years you have absolutly no chance to road register a two stroke quad,no way hosay! shees cant get a legitimate street reg over here anymore,im lucky cos mine was regd befor this new exhaust emmissions law came in,you can get it if you put a kat on it but it aint gonna run at all! all new shees over here are registered as having a katilysator but of course havent got one,if the cops stop you and take a look and even sometimes take yer ride with em and give her a real total check out,no kat means no street reg,means no insurance ect ect,fine over here for no kat or open power is about 3,000 dollas,sometimes if it realy looks tweeked and open power theyll open up the motor to realy f*ck ya! i know someone who got his ride back in a few boxes and a big fine alongside,ive bin stopped a few times,i ride open power but so far been lucky they aint realised!!! or cant be bothered to speak broken english!only takes the right cop that wants to get browny points from the boss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranshee Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 I think in some states its allready legal to ride them on the streets. Met some guys from arizona that said there quads were street legal. They had license plates on the fenders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducman Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 In CA it will never happen! Any rights and privleges only dissapear and will continue to go away untill were are a fully socialist and then a communist state. I really wanted to get a GP road bike for my wife like a Aprilla RS 250, but I couldn't find a way to get a street leagal one in CA (lagitimately) that was newer than 1990 or so when they quit allowing new 2 strokes bikes to be or be made street legal. Still want to get her a 1990 Yamaha TZR 250 some day through. Almost all that I have found have been made into race only machines though and would have to made back to street legal. Some states allow certain uses of roads by quads that have turn signals, ect. If you are in a state like that, you don't know how luckey you are.

DIRTBIKEZ Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 I think certain townships across the country have instated laws allowing ATVs for use around town. There is at least one street legal banshee here on Long Island. Originally it had a single rear wheel (motorcycle style) with the stock motor. Then was converted back to four wheels with an R1 motor.

trail rider Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 Street legal quads would be so fucking awesome ! Just think, instead of seeing harley gangs go down the road, you would see banshee gangs. Tricked out shees and hot babes in skin-tight leather pants! But you would probably also see a bunch of old fat guys riding around on utility quads and stuff too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locogato11283 Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 it would be sweet but i dont think its gonna happen most places. theres a small town about 10 miles north of here that allows quads on the city streets. you have to live in the city and have to be tagged for it. i dont know how many people do it but i know i would! i wish theyd make them street legal. even if you had to get turn signals and such, that would be no big deal. id be rollin mine all the time.

frocashmoney24 Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 for thos of you that live in like germany and can ride roads, how do you refuel? carry some oil with you, fill up ur tank at a station and dump the oil in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
streetshee Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 sometimes it can be a problem,just remember to take a liter of oil with u and keep a check on where the next and last station is or was! when i go more than 200 miles i make sure i got a few liters in a can strapped to the rear grab bar,just for emergencies i mix 25-1 cos shee gets hammered for a long time,havent had any plugs foul or any probs,only the winter salt has bitten her quite a lot,i get her powder coated soon,and my new carbon fenders!! fcukin yeh man!!!!

streetshee Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 mine says 105kmh in the road reg papers and should have the restricter screw on thumb throttle screwed in until theres 13mm stickin out,that should be about 20 hp!! but i got a twist grip so i bored a hole in it and put a dummy restricter screw in fcuk ridin 20hp banshee,crap man! the only quad thats allowed full power is the kfx 700,or banshee if it was road regd before 2001.all quads now must be strangled to 20ps. i dont know anyone who rides a restricted shee,but if the fuzz catches u,wave goodbye to ya licence and an empty bank account Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
