Most states consider these to be motorcycles and license them as such; and
they are street legal.  Easier to get the three wheelers registered though
than the four wheelers as the 4 wheelers fall under automobile standards.
No knowledge of Oregon laws, but should not be much different I would think.
It was a very easy matter to transfer the certificate of title here in Texas
and to get it registered after a state inspection.  Once you get them
registered, they are street legal and you should not get pulled over unless
it is just to admire your wheels.

 

Try a local golf car dealer - more likely to get someone who knows about
reduced speed vehicles.

New poster (hope the WSJ article didn't ruin things).  Looking to get some 3
wheel in my life.

 

Anyone in Oregon tried to register/operate any of these? Called local
ATV/yamaha dealer, not a lot of help.

Having lived in SF, I know the police are tolerant/have better things to do,
but up here probably

get pulled over more than worth the trouble.

 

Thanks,
