2006 New York Code - Registration.

 
    § 2261. Registration.  1.  Except  as  hereinafter provided, no person
  shall operate any limited use vehicle on  a  public  highway  or  street
  within this state unless such limited use vehicle has been registered in
  accordance with the provisions of this article, and the registration for
  such   limited  use  vehicle  is  in  full  force  and  effect  and  the
  registration  number  plate  or  plates  are  displayed  as  hereinafter
  provided.
    2. A certificate of registration issued pursuant to this article shall
  indicate  that the registration is limited to use as provided in section
  twenty-two  hundred  sixty-two  of  this  chapter.  No  application  for
  registration  shall be accepted unless the applicant is at least sixteen
  years of age.
    3. Fees. (a) The fees for the registration, renewal, reregistration or
  amendment or duplicate of a registration of  a  limited  use  automobile
  shall  be  the  same fees as if such vehicle were registered pursuant to
  section four hundred one of this chapter.
    (b) The annual fee for the registration,  renewal,  reregistration  or
  amendment  or  duplicate  of  a registration of a limited use motorcycle
  shall be five dollars.  Any such registration will commence  and  expire
  on  dates to be determined by the commissioner. A fee for a registration
  for periods of more or less than one year shall not be prorated.
    4. Carrying certificate. Every person operating a limited use  vehicle
  registered  in  accordance  with  any of the provisions of this article,
  shall, upon the demand of any magistrate, police officer, peace officer,
  when acting pursuant to his special duties,  or  motor  vehicle  hearing
  officer  produce for inspection the certificate of registration for such
  limited use vehicle and shall furnish to  such  person  any  information
  necessary  for  the  identification  of such limited use vehicle and its
  owner. The  failure  to  produce  the  certificate  of  registration  as
  provided  herein  shall  not  be  an  offense,  but shall be presumptive
  evidence of operating a limited use vehicle which is not  registered  as
  required by this article.
    5.  Out-of-state  limited  use  vehicle registration. The registration
  provisions of this article shall not apply to  a  non-resident  who  has
  registered  his  limited use vehicle in compliance with the registration
  or licensing laws of the state, province or country  of  his  residence,
  provided  that  the limited use vehicle so registered in accordance with
  the laws of the state, province or country of residence of such owner is
  appropriately identified by an identification plate,  sticker  or  other
  identifying device issued by such state, province or country.
