Off Road Parts

off road parts question by Robert6772: How to make a dirt bike street legal in New York State?
So i’ve been reading a lot of the posts about turning a “off-road use only” dirt bike into a street legal “enduro” style bike. How is this done? Some people say its not possible anymore. Others say it is possible if you register it in another state and transfer the plates. If so how would this work? Also what are the physical requirement of s dirt bike to be street legal (such as parts).
Any help, tips, and advice is appreciated.

Thanks.
Also – is a 250 too small?
What size would be appropriate for a 20 year old male 6ft 160lbs.

I don’t know about specific state laws, but at the very least, you need a speedometer, brake light, and turn signals front and rear, as well as a headlight.

old mtn bikes are usually worth about $ 100. The Avalanche was a high end model, if i remember correctly. If it is in very good condition, and has xt or xtr parts it may be worth as much as $ 200

Off Road

off road question by Snipes: Best style/brand of bike for a long distance/off road trip?
I’m planning a bike trip from Quebec to PEI. I’ll be bicycling about 100km/ day. Most of it will be done on the shoulder of the road, some gravel and some off road. I’m thinking about a mountain bike of some kind because I want to use it when I come back to BC. Any suggestions would help! Thanks.

As long as you stick with the major brands, (Trek, Raleigh, Gary Fisher, etc.) fit is more important than brand name. ALL the major brand names are good. Find one that you are comfortable riding.

Personally, I had a low end Trek 820 once. I like it because of the super low 1st gear for climbing hills. Now I have lower back problems & stick with my hybrid bike for the upright riding position.

So aint in hell am i gonna get one of those gay scooters so i just want to know if trail and enduro bikes are on road/off road becuase it will be pretty cool to have a bike that you can also ride through rougher terrain and on the road thanks!

To ride on the road it must be street legal – flashers, lights etc.

Dual Sport used to be called Trail is street legal with extended travel suspension, high exhaust, knobby tires.
Enduro I believe is designed for long distances – same thing, but larger capacity, bush bars, panniers, etc. e.g BMW. More expensive, heavier, more comfortable for long dirt roads but (I presume) tougher to climb over rocks with.

Off-road is fun, you can do crazy stuff and only risk your own neck. Or just get out in the middle of nowhere and enjoy the scenery without a lot of hikers getting in the way.
