MD Registration Help

[Boneyard]

I'm new to MD and need to register and plate my dirtbike for enduro's etc. I have a registration for Rhode Island to transfer but I wasn't sure how MD was with dirtbikes....it's a little sketchy in RI. Any info and/or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

You need a safety inspection done (lights, chain guards odometer ect). You also need a motorcycle title, if it says off road only it's no good.

Thank you for the response. My title is good but my odometer is a Watchdog computer. It shows the normal speed, miles, etc. so hopefully its good. Do tires need to be DOT and does the brake light have to work when you press the brake (i have a light on back but don't have the brake hookup)?

Also, what should I expect for cost?

Thanks

yes, everything has to work. The odo can't be resettable meaning you can't change total mileage.

Thanks.....What does everyone use then for an ODO? I think even the stock KTM ODO can be reset. Do I need turn signals?

Here's what I bought to pass. Stainless steel Mini Speedometer for $49.00.

Yes you need turn signals. My inspection (last week) cost $65. Yes turn signals, horn, mirrors etc. You also need a license plate light. I was told free re-inspection within 30 days of failed inspection. Mine failed the license plate light was out, I rode it home fixed the connector under the seat that failed, rode it back same day, he checked that it worked and gave me the forms to take to the tag and title store down the road to get my sticker from (I was running temp reg).

Edit: I showed the guy the odometer, he questioned the low mileage, I answered and he moved on to the next thing on his checklist.

My KTM passed inspection because they didn't know it could be reset. But actually, I think there is a mode that is cumulative that cannot be reset.

I appreciate all of the suggestions but I am struggling to see how I will be able to get my 2011 KTM 280 XCFW registered in MD...getting a little worried as I wanted to race the ECEA Enduro's and do some Turkey Runs.

From what I heard I would need to add a brake light switch, turn signals, license plate lights, chain guards, ODO, etc.......Do all off road riders in MD actually add all this stuff to get a registration? Are there any other options...besides moving to PA?
