Default Texas streetlegal quad

I live in fort worth texas and i want to build a street legal quad. I have talked to the place where i go to get my tags and do title transfers and they told me to build it get it passed through a motorcycle inspection and it can be titled for the street. with gas prices this would be great being that i really dont want to ride a bike.

What im looking for is someone with the same interest in this that has a bike we can use. there will be no cutting of the bike so if this does not work goes right back to how it was. I own a full cnc machine shop and have all the machines and material to do this. I really think this can be done.

send me a message if anyone is interested

thanks

You may want to check with the DMV first. My understanding is once it's titled as ORV, it stays ORV.

Street use is prohibited in Texas.

The only states that allow street use are:

Arizona
Idaho
Minnesota
Montana
Nevada
South Dakota
West Virginia

If I understand correctley he wants to turn a motorcycle into a quad which is legal and I have seen some down in the hill country. using a 1100 cc sport bike and a can am swingarm and front end. had to weld structure under the front of the bike to hold and locate the front axle. I am south of ft worth about 45 min and we might be able to work this out.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
