Considering purchase of gas powered mini bikes to take camping and use to explore USFS roads here in Oregon. If we have spark arresters & are respectful ^& quiet is this legal? I wonder if we can ride out of the camp and explore? Hope this is the best location to post this

Is "street lgeal" the official law? What about snow mobiles? Don't want to purchawe if not legal.

not sure about Oregon but in Ontario it would not be. look for a street legal dirt bike

I would call the US Forest Service in Portland and get the official word.

Here is your home statehttps://www.oregon.gov/oprd/ATV/docs/hb_laws_rules.pdfJust as an example here is Michigan's requirements.http://www.michigan.gov/documents/dnr/ORVLicenseStructure_471992_7.pdf
