You are buying a motorcycle with a Bill of Sale only and wanted to know if you could get a title for it?

In: Motorcycle Buying and Selling

[Edit]

Answer

I would not buy it unless the seller can prove that there is not a lien against it and that he has the legal right to sell the bike. If he is selling it with a Lien against the title, you will be unable to take ownership until that lien is paid off by the original owner. This is a huge, huge, huge hassle that you will not be able to win unless you are willing to put a TON of time and monetary resources toward. In my opinion, not worth it... move on and get a bike with a legal title in the sellers hand.
