Does the shee need to be registered to race?

[01bansheefox]

Bought my shee off ebay, guy never sent pink slip, and wont send it and no longer have the # on frame because it was powdercoated, do i need to have it registered etc... for me to enter races?

In NY and Canada you don't have to be registerd to race,but I don't know about other places.

In general, no; they don't care if you cobbled a V10 motor into a lawnmower frame, as long as ya pay the entry fee (and AMA membership if it's AMA/ATVA sanctioned) they let ya in. Some are more stringent than others on safety requirements (always a good idea; tether kill switch, nerfs, helmet, etc.), and displacement classes (open, 4-choke, etc.).

 

The only exception I've ever seen has been desert racing, since it was on BLM land they mentioned needing current registration and title, but never asked to see it. So if you're racing on public land (cross-country) yes you might need it, if it's on private land (most MX, TT, ST, drags) you prolly won't.

take the serial off of the motor to your local dealer. if the dude behind the counter has half a brain he will cross reference the numbers and youll end up with the VIN.

now with the vin, and a Bill OF Sale from Both, My purchase and the one before that, how much if a pain is it to get a title for one? Of course it Never had a title.

I've never been asked to see any of that stuff at a race. I have raced in alot of different states and different events (nationals, ama/atva, local) and never been asked. My frame in powderd coated but I have my vin numbers at home if I really need them.
