Plain Language Summary

This bill allows owners of off-road motorcycles to obtain certificates of title from the North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles. Off-road motorcycles are defined as motorcycles designed exclusively for off-road use with no more than two wheels on the ground. Owners can apply for a title by submitting an application with owner information, vehicle description, and lien details.

Arguments in Favor

• •Supporters argue that certificates of title provide legal proof of ownership for off-road motorcycles, helping owners protect their property and resolve ownership disputes.
• •This brings off-road motorcycles in line with other similar vehicles like all-terrain vehicles and utility vehicles that already have titling options available in North Carolina.

Arguments Against

• •Opponents may be concerned about the administrative burden and cost of implementing a new titling system for off-road motorcycles.
• •Some may question whether titling is necessary for vehicles used exclusively off-road, or worry about potential complications if off-road vehicles are later used on public roads despite their intended purpose.
