So, I've been looking unsuccessfully for something recent on plating a dirtbike in Texas, most of the info I've found is circa 2007.
I want to get a 2017 KTM 450 SX-F Factory Edition throw on a speedometer, Cyclops Rally light, and a tail light and convert it. I live in El Paso, so getting a KTM is hard enough by itself.
However, the problem lies with the MCO and the Title. I called DPS and was told flat out no it cannot be done and will not be done if the title says off-road. Yet I have not found anything in writing, just what "Amy" from dps told me. Does anyone have recent experience converting a dirtbike to be legal for road use? Or should I just count my losses and get the 450 Six days edition?
I've grown up on KTM bikes so they will always be worth the money for me.
Thanks y'all.
