Which is BS. I would like to see some stats indicating this is actually working.

Anybody know if the 05 raptor would be green or not?

Why not target something that REALLY matters like industrial and/or Railroads? Diesel around here is NUTZ ($.20 more than premium gas) - for road use diesel that is. Guess who's not charged these INSANE rates? They pay pennies on $1000 in property taxes too. I'm getting TIRED of paying for them saving!

Is it just the 2 strokes that can get Red sticker or can 4 strokes get them too.

4 strokes are usually always green but don't quote me on that.

Something strange here I think. When the Red sticker took effect all 2 strokes under a certain displacement were exempted such as the Yamaha PW50. You may be able to get this changed or corrected.

To get green sticker the manufacturer needs to go thru a noise and emissions test standard and get certified and must come with spark arrestor. All 2-strokes over 50cc (????) must be red sticker. Most 4-strokes will be green sticker if mfg. has done the correct certs. Everything year 2002 and older is now classified green sticker. Most racing 4-stroke motorcycles are red sticker.

as far as i know a green sticker lets you ride whener in the summer in the winter and the red restricts the times of year you can go riding and where you can go riding. I think this is right but you might want to ask around

Quick question. For those of us not from California, what is the difference between sticker colors? I assume red is bad and green is good.

Hello bombest. What determines if a quad will be a red or green sticker? Is it emissions?

I bought my son a new Suzuki LT 50 2004 at Del Amo Motor Sports in California. I have 3 other bikes in my garage that all have green stickers and I never would buy red sticker bike because we ride at least twice a month. I asked the sales rep if this came with a Green Sticker, he said yes even looked at the vin numbers. I just got my sticker today and it's RED.
I called the dealer and all they could say i sorry. <B>

Here is the sticker deal in California.
Red Sticker = allows you only to ride your OHV about from April through October (some locations you can ride extended months.)
Green Sticker = Allows you to ride your OHV Year Round.
The way to tell is by looking at the 8th Digit on the VIN and if you see a 3 or a C That means its a Red sticker Bike.
I had success after dealing with the Sales Manager who was kind enough to take my lt50 back and allow me to trade it in for another bike that would receive a Green Sticker from the DMV
