If no one here can give you a sure answer, maybe you could try www.BikerFlorida.com  The same fellow who owns this site started that one.

I would simply just go down to the tag agency and act like its just a motorcycle. If it does not say OFF ROAD VEHICLE on the title, then more than likely they wouldn't know and give you a tag. Just do not give them any info on it unless they ask. There are plenty of motorcycles on the raod that has less then 200cc. I don't see why it wouldn't be illegal. I think the ones that are illegal in California is those pocket bikes. They were having a lot of problems with people buying them up and running them on the highway because they were 49cc and people were considering them as no different then a moped.

Sounds street legal.   Don't forget you need to have the motorcycle endorsement on you drivers license.
