Frequently asked questions

Do I have to register an ATV in Colorado?

Yes, for use on public lands and trails — Colorado's OHV program charges $26.25 per year. ATVs used exclusively on your own private property are typically exempt.

Can I ride a registered ATV on the road in Colorado?

Generally no — OHV registration does not confer street-legal status. Limited road crossings or special local ordinances may allow short segments; street-legal conversion is a separate (and in many states unavailable) process.
