Don't know about "have to"wear a helmet, but if you can ride it on the highway, if you have the ability to come off the vehicle in an accident like you would a bike, and the final destination is pavement, wouldn't a helmet be prudent?

Yep.  I would wear a helmet but that's not really what I was getting at. 

My point is, is this a bike or a car?   How is it any different from say a small convertible?  Where is the line between helmet and not helmet?

What you gonna say about it?

That's my point.  So do we still wear a helmet with this thing?  Would a cop even  know?

I'm pretty sure "how many wheels it has now" doesn't have anything to do with if it's considered a motorcycle or not. I think it's how many wheels it had when it was titled by the manufacturer. The conversion kit manufacturer could try to re-title it as a car, but I believe if they tried that, it would have to meet DOT requirements for structural integrity in the doors, seat belts, a windshields provides some amount of rollover protection.

A motorcycle as defined by Nebraska law is a motor vehicle
or saddle for the use of the driver and designed to travel on
wheels in contact with the ground, but excluding a tractor.


It's Not for me; reminds me too much of a 4 wheeler and that means all work in the pasture and no play.
