It was easy to title and register my new Sunl Sl300 in MN. All they needed was the MSO and engine number. Paid the fee and got the plates and I was off to riding.

Check your bike for a "Federal safety sticker". I had no trouble at the DMV this spring when I went to register and get plates. My trouble started a month ago, when I got a letter stating that I was to have my bike inspected for a federal safety sticker. If my bike did not (which it didn't) I was to return my plates. The dealer that I bought the bike from no longer exists. Roketa gave me a huge run-around and finally told me that they would not help. So, I went to the DMV and asked what to do. They said bring the bike in and see if the inspector would pass it. They told me that if I had converted a dirtbike I would have no problems, but since my bike was manufactured with lights and such, I would probably have to have the sticker for the inspector to pass me. I loaded my bike onto a trailer and showed up to have it looked at. When I showed the inspector my letter, he asked, "Do you have the sticker?" I told him no, and he wouldn't even come out and look at the bike. He told me that in MN it had to have a federal safety sticker to be licenced.

I have DNR registration on the bike, so I figured I could ride through town on the atv routes. WRONG. The chief of police told me yesterday that motorcycle fell into a different catigory and could not be ridden on atv routes through the city. So, if I want to ride, I have to trailer it out of town. I really hope you have that sticker. Good luck.

I have over a 1,000 miles of on and off-road riding. I have had very minimal problems. You would think I would have found out by now if it was safe or not. Sorry, just had to add that little rant.

Maybe you need to "convert" it.

I hope that doesn't happen to me.

Well I looked at my motorcycle again and I see that it has a federal emissions sticker with the DOT certified sticker. I think I am okay.

Have a Roketa that has been registered for 2 years. Trick I used, I took digital photos of DOT and EPA compliance plates riveted to the frame and gave deputy registrar prints of the plates with the title application.
