Buying A Used Bike
Alright, I got the bike picked, talked to the man, ridden the bike, like the bike and now I am going to buy it. My question is what does it take to get the bike put in my name once I go to the DMV what exactly is everything that I need. Unfortuently I found the DMV site a little vague for the purpose so I am asking you, my fellow forum goers. What do I need to make sure the title is transfered to my name, and the bike is registered to my name. What do I have to do to renew the plates on the car since he let them expire during the winter? Thanks alot!

Really? DMV must be retards around here, last time I asked they told me you could only transfer your own plates from one of your cars to another, you couldnt transfer someone elses plates to you.

i've registeded probably a hundred bikes/cars, and i never once had a bill of sale. just had the signed/dated title. never needed anything else to register.
you do have to have proof of insurance to get plates though.

bill of sale is what you pay taxes on. take my truck for example. i paid 4500 for it. the NADA is 7500. since i didn't have a signed bill of sale from the previous owner, i had to pay taxes on 7500 instead of 4500 (90 dollar difference)
i didn't need proof of insurance either. they asked if i had it, and i said yes, which was a lie, but it got registered, tags, and i got insurance the next day. do not drive with no insurance though, unless you like playing with fire, live grenades, whatever floats your boat.
