Convert to being street legal?
#1
Which sport quads are easiest to convert to being street legal?
I'm toying with the idea of buying a used ATV and making it street legal just so I can save on gas $$ and mile on my lease truck (that's how I can justify the cost)

well, there's probably no one sport quad that would be easier, because (very) basically, they all work the same way... its things like gearing, lights, tires, mirrors, blah blah blah, that you would have to worry about.
and by the way, wouldn't you have to do somehting with the rear end, so that when you turn the wheel on the inside can turn more than the one on the outside(especially when your at higher speeds)?

In michigan, you can't have a solid rear axle so I'd have to use a motorcycle swing arm and rear tire OR find a quad with a rear differential.
I've seen a Raptor with a motorcyle rear end put on it, but I'm hoping to find something that will fit on a 400ex (since they're so cheap used)

i believe that Raptor was in DirtWheels, it actually looked awesome! it classified as a 3-wheel trike, making it street legal. the guy made it himself. he said it takes about 1/2 hour to convert it back to normal.

in WI u have to use a single wheel too but here you can convert 3 wheelers like the old 250 honda's 2 stroke
and the big reds and such you can pick those up extremely cheap and they do have a decent top end
especially if you gear them up.
