A group of my buddies are going to the Majestic trails in PA but I wasn't sure if I had to get my 3wheeler registered or if it was even possible to do so. I live in New York and you can't register them or ride them on public trails. If anyone knows the regulations please let me know. Thanks!

you can register them in NY. Majestic's website says registration is required, don't know if it enforced or not. Members on this site are reg/ins in NY.

DEEPA went down there a couple months ago, pulled over for a game warden (or some law official) and I believe he got about a 250$ ticket.

So, I'd say YES, you had better be registered.......

I didn't know that you could register them in NY I thought they were outlawed. Thanks for the info I'll have to check into it at DMV. Thanks!

I have a quad thats registered. I know for trial pass which I think may be required for the place in the poconos specifically states no 3 wheeled or 5 wheeled vehicles. You would have to check out the trail pass website though.

I have 3 trikes that are registered in Pa. Just went to the notary, filled out some paperwork and left with tags on the back.

Majestic is on PRIVATE PROPERTY.....You will not be bothered by any law enforcement there...I have been a member for 5+ years....never seen any law enforcemeny/rangers/dnr there....You can do a non-resident registration at any atv shop in pa....I believe its $20 for 2 years...Then you could ride anywhere in pa...
