Sunsprit mentioned earlier that I use a 4 wheeler for main transportation. I use it to get grocery's, go to other stores, doctor appointments, etc. I might mention, I live 20 miles from town.
I've got a Honda 400 Rancher. If I take gravel roads I run 40 mph most of the way, there are a couple curves that I have to slow down for. If I take the highway, I run 55 mph. That's State Highway. MPV (Multi Purpose Vehicles) are not allowed on the Interstate.
I was putting heavy wear on my tires so I found a place on the internet to get rims made that would take standard 14 inch car tires. So in the Spring, I swap out the knobs, rims and all and put on my street tires and rims. The tires are within 1/4 inch in diameter from being exactly the same. The street tires are 50,000 warranteed radials. Think I'll ever wear them out?
I do about 3000 miles a year with my 4 wheeler on the road, about 300-400 on trails. That keeps my Ford Diesel down to less then 1000 miles a year.
Wyoming, Montana and South Dakota are all legal.
The only thing I had to add to make it street legal was to add a mirror, and a horn. Everything else is stock. No helmets required in those three states for me. Don't know about kids.
I know for a fact that if you live in utah you you can title,plate,and ride on the street with an atv.I have been wondering if anyone has "adapted"an atv to be legal in colorado.

With that much hair and beard, would you even need one or would you be able to find one that fits?
I agree with catman, you did make riding an ATV hella fun! I would not ride it because I know how zippy they are without the agility and maneuverability of a motorcycle which is already dangerous to ride in So Cal as it is so I cannot even imagine what would happen if I rode an ATV around where I live.
When I get older (or hit the lottery jackpot), I definitely want to buy a place in Montana or Idaho or Nebraska or somewhere around there where roads are empty and less populated so I can totally enjoy riding.

Not legal in Colorado--period. Also, not legal in all Utah counties. I wish Colorado would legalize ATV's for road use the way Arizona, Wyoming, South Dakota, and Idaho have, but I see no sentiment in the metropolitan-dominated Colorado Legislature to do it. Thanks in large part to the large number of California transplants infesting Colorado, Colorado is increasingly following California's "nanny state" metropolitan-centered philosophy.
Does anyone know whether or not they are street legal in New Mexico? I suppose they aren't. I don't think I'd drive one on the highway, but there are a lot of places in NM where it would be great (almost necessary) to have one! I'm thinking of moving there.

They are not.
