Frequently asked questions
Do I have to register an ATV in Wisconsin?
Yes, for use on public lands and trails — Wisconsin's OHV program charges $30 per 2 years. ATVs used exclusively on your own private property are typically exempt.
Can I ride a registered ATV on the road in Wisconsin?
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.
