New Coleman CT200U Owner from Alabama

[sheltonfilms]

Well bought me one of these bikes at Walmart the other day on clearance for $250!

Being the type of person that can't stand bone stock, I hope to dig into some mods for this cool mini bike.

Also, seeing as I don't have any land to really ride it on, most of my driving will be in the neighborhood.

I'm gonna try and see if I can get this thing registered as a motorcycle and get a plate (trying to avoid trouble). Hardest part right now is finding DOT tires.

Thanks, I saw those. I don't know if inspectors do just a quick glance or if they actually look for a "DOT" lettering on the tire. Maybe if they see a tire that looks more like a street tire they won't look as hard.

You will have MANY more significant challenges to get that Coleman bike street legal than just the tires.

First hurdle is getting the MSO from Coleman and getting it signed by the walmart manager.

I've read a review that said you call Coleman and give them the VIN and they will send you an MSO!

If schedule is open that may be a possibility.
