If so, then how did you and your neighbor get green stickers, but 56 could not? Or, if your digits/letters are different, then why is that the case? Or, has CA DMV recently changed some laws/rules as far as OHV equipment is concerned?
The calif DMV is not the most consistant place around. Sort of like the IRS. I have a '04 Yamoto 150 and it got a green sticker.

Just curious[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]
It will be grandfathered in by then........ [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Secondly, I'll most likely have traded it or sold it for the next best thing...... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

What a mess that sounds like. Thank goodness the greenies haven't been able to impose this red/green sticker bull crap in the other 49 states.

Very glad to hear they gave you the right one now.. that would really suck to buy a new quad and be told that you can only ride in certain areas.. hope it works out once again the next time stickers are issued.

If it is that is great[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] However, grandfathered in only happened for pre-'03's. However, your problem will be solved when you trade it or sell it before then[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] like you stated. Ride safely[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

You can only hope[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] I read an article where Oregon and Washington are looking at adopting Ca. emission standards[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] NOT GOOD[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Well here in NY all the trails are either private land or parks owned by private companies. But there are a lot of envirotards here so I would expect some sort of sticker system once we get a state trail system (if that ever happens).

I might be in the minority on my thoughts here[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

I think for the most part, our sticker system is good. We have a lot of riding parks that the state maintains and operates. Not including federal land and county parks. Sure, they could use some more work, expansions and this gree/red sticker is a pain[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] But, if you research quads and buy one that does meet the emissions standards, or pre'03 models, then you are alright. Plus, you DO NOT have to register your quad in California[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] You only need to register it, if you ride on public land or transport it on the roadway and unlike cars on the roadway, we only pay $25 every two years for registration.
