welp. not technically 100% legal. BUT i never get to ride my quad anymore. so i threw my old supermoto tires on it, and it is now my work transportation when weather permits. My work is less then a mile down the road and here in Arkansas its legal to ride quads on the side of the road and cross when needed. so i'm doing nothing illegal here so no flaming saying its people like me that is ruining our sport!

Haha that would be awesome to do!

They are contemplating allowing "quadricycles" for street use in Canada.... if they allow use to convert an ATV into a "quadricycle" (I'm guessing you would just need lights, mirrors, street tires, and a horn) then I would be doing the same as you!

I wouldnt mind that.. They should make it like you need a tractors liscense, I could get back and forth to a summer job pretty easy.

Yeah, I would ride to school... in downtown Toronto... in major traffic jams! I wouldn't care though, it would be much more fun than driving in a traffic jam. I really hate driving in Toronto, it's pretty much a gridlock everywhere.

That's why I want to get a motorcycle... but my parents are saying no until I'm 25... damn.

Not much is known about what they are planning... all I've found is this on another forum I'm on:

Where are you from in Canada BTW?

Why 25? Are you still going to be living under their roof and spending their money? I would think that once you're out on your own you could spend your money on whatever you please, whether it be stripers or a motorcycle to have a good time on when it's nice outside.

You have to be 21 for strippers here...but I'm 21 so it's ok lol

but let's get back on topic. I would love to make the ole' 400 street legal. I would spend a lot less on gas b/c then I would only drive my car to school in the city.

Love it buddy, how'd you find it on the road?

I have a road legal LTR in England, in the shop getting an R6 engine fitted at present.
