I remember a member or two from WA discussing your registration laws, but don't remember the members or the laws for that matter, but I remember them being a little strict(er). Find a WA dealer and buy the LF200GY-5 or LF200GY-2 dual sports (49 states DOT legal), and Jetmoto just got (49 state) DOT approval for their enduro--start with these two brands for DOT certification; I am sure others are, but do double check, and don't necessarily trust what a mail-order dealer tells you if you go that route.

I think Hooper Imports is a major LIfan dealer, although not an official American Lifan dealer--he imports them as gray-market bikes; still DOT certified, but no warranty.
