Did you folks hear the latest? As of Jan 1, 09, we now have a yearly fee =
of $25.00 for all off road ATV's, dirt bikes, etc. In short, anything =
that runs off road and under 1800 lbs...
This state is desperate for money and they're going after anything they =
can to get the bucks.
I mean, what can one say about a state that has yearly emmissions =
testing in 2 counties and it's the only state to do so? Money grubbers!!

What do you get for your $25.00?
(rhetorical question)
Keep electing lawyers to get more of the same.

Ohio does it too, in all the counties around Cleveland and
Cincinnasti.
Go fast. Take chances.

is that registration to use on public lands, or just to own one? If
the latter, that's a shady and rough deal! If the former, it could be
worse - NH has the same policy but it's more $. I find it's worth it
to ride some of the legal areas though.

NY has a reg fee, but no- I mean no- legal riding areas on public
lands, excepting some towns up north that allow some ATVs on town
roads when connecting private trails together.
The ATV reg fee goes into a trail development fund that every year
gets raided and put into the general fund, because the Dept. of
Environmental Conservation (DEC) is anti-OHV and won't allow any trail
development, and gee, why let the money just sit there?
I shoulda took a job in colorado when I was looking a few years ago
(to enjoy the trails there before they all get shut down), but nothing
turned up.
