(1) (a) Upon the receipt of a sufficient
application for registration of an off-highway vehicle, as required by section 33-14.5-102, the division shall assign a distinctive number to the vehicle and shall enter
upon its records the registration of such off-highway vehicle under the distinctive
number assigned to it pursuant to this section.

(b) A number assigned to an off-highway vehicle at the time of its original
registration shall remain with the off-highway vehicle until such off-highway
vehicle is destroyed, abandoned, or permanently removed from the state or until
such registration number is changed or terminated by the division.

(2) The division shall, upon assignment of such number, issue and deliver to
the owner a registration in such form as the division shall prescribe. In the event of
the loss, mutilation, or destruction of any registration, the owner of the registered
off-highway vehicle shall file a statement containing such facts as the division shall
require for the issuance of a replacement registration, together with the fee
specified in section 33-12-101.

(3) At the time of the original registration and at the time of each annual

expiration date thereof, which validation decal shall be affixed to the off-highway
vehicle in such manner as the division may prescribe. Notwithstanding the fact that
an off-highway vehicle has been assigned an identifying number, it shall not be
considered as validly registered within the meaning of this article unless a
validation decal and current registration have been issued.

reregistered does not comply with the provisions respecting equipment established
by the regulations of the division, the division may deny the issuance of a current
registration.

(5) The registration number assigned to an off-highway vehicle shall be
displayed on the vehicle at all times in such manner as the division may, by
regulation, prescribe.

(6) Every person, while operating an off-highway vehicle in this state which is
required to be registered under this article, shall have on his person or in the off-highway vehicle the registration therefor and shall, upon demand of any peace
officer authorized to enforce this article, produce for inspection the registration for
such off-highway vehicle.

(7) (a) Any person who violates subsection (5) of this section commits a civil
infraction and, upon conviction, shall be punished by a fine of twenty-five dollars.

(b) Any person who violates subsection (6) of this section commits a civil
infraction and, upon conviction, shall be punished by a fine of fifty dollars.
