Buyers can register eligible nonhighway vehicles

Owners can assign a nonhighway title to a buyer when the vehicle is sold in a condition that allows registration. Buyers can then get a title and register the vehicle. A regular title requires completion of the inspection and safety requirements in K.S.A. 8-116a.

Dealers pay $10 for off-road inventory titles

Kansas dealers must apply for an inventory-only title when they acquire qualifying used nonhighway vehicles. These include all-terrain vehicles, work-site utility vehicles, recreational off-highway vehicles, and motorcycles that qualify under K.S.A. 8-197. Dealers apply through the county treasurer. Each application costs $10 and must include a bill of sale or certificate of title.
