Dirt Bikes, quads, & mowers... (Not sure if this belongs here...)

But do the brakes work?

Hell No! My top speed is only about 11 mph. Who needs stinking brakes!

I like that setup. Is that the engine in the back?

This is the bed with it empty, more or less. The bed measures 9" x42"x30" also has a gun rack mounted.

That's worth more then my truck.

Probably costs more too. ;-)

Y'all have given me some stuff to think about...

I really want an old KX125, or KX250 for nostalgia, as I couldn't afford one back when I was a kid (nor could my parents), but the "rich-kids" had them...
They would scoot my happy ass all around the property w/out issue, and they are about $1500-$2000, and I have a buffer from selling the prior family home for a better life out of the 'Burbs.

Hell, I saw a used KLX650r. last night for under $3k, with title, and I almost sh!+ twinkies...
Not sure if I would die quickly, but I MIGHT try... however no test rides... REALLY?!
I NEED to contact that fellah, for clarification, as I understand that model is a "wheelie-MACHINGA".

Only way I’ll ever get some sort of off road vehicle would be if I hit a lottory. Then I’d want a military Polaris Razor. And yea I’d want a gun mount.

Not really. I'd let it go for $12,500

I think I might be able to $7,500.00 for a 2001 Nissan Single cab with no A/C, decent stereo with under 115,K original miles. I figure antique plates will keep it on the road when y'all are driving electric shit.

Looking at used property-transport/toys, when coming across Facebook marketplace (Not that I have a FB account, but I'll have my wife chat with them), I am seeing some listings with clean titles, and some with No title, just a BOS.

(Sorry for my ignorance, I don't know how the off-road stuff works, my dad did all that when I was a kid, and I recall just filling out a BOS when I sold the motorcycle in like the 80's... I can't seem to google the right answers...)

If the seller never got something titled (or after bringing it into Texas), or never titled after completion of a "totaled" salvage vehicle/rebuild from "scrap"...
1) Is the buyer on the hook for the $25 title + $25 per month never titled?

2) Will they go after the seller for past-due taxes, or it basically starts from that point and the past is forgiven when it gets titled?

3) If off-road vehicles are to be titled for the first time (or in a long time), do off-road toys have to go through the safety inspection, (the ~$35 "safety inspection" [AKA checks wipers and "emissions test"] , clearly not wipers) like regular road vehicles do? (I am sure 2-strokes wouldn't pass "emissions test".)

In most states on vehicles that are not legal for road use get a Manufacterers Certificate of Origin, not a title, because IIRC the VIN's are different.

Best of my knowledge, only vehicles legal for road use have to have a safety inspection.

I would look into having a guy with a skidster mulcher come out & cut trails for you. Then use the 4wheeler with mower to maintain them. You can have a guy come out for about $1250 a day maybe cheaper of you do multiple days.

The forestry machines are a great way to clear land, and they leave behind material that will decompose into mulch and fertilizer for your land, plus no brish piles to move or burn.

If you're only going to be using the vehicle on private property, you don't need to worry about any of that. Buying a used four wheeler, dirt bike, or ranch truck is just like buying a gun private sale. No paperwork needed.

Yep. Cash and carry.
