This is the most important document, as it transfers ownership of the motorcycle from the seller to you. It should include the following information:
* The names of the buyer and seller
* The date of the sale
* The make, model, and year of the motorcycle
* The VIN number of the motorcycle
* The purchase price
* Any other relevant details, such as the condition of the motorcycle or any warranties
Certificate of Title
The certificate of title is a legal document that shows who owns the motorcycle. In some states, the seller is required to sign over the certificate of title to the buyer at the time of sale. In other states, the buyer may need to apply for a new certificate of title from the DMV.
Emissions Inspection Certificate
Some states require motorcycles to pass an emissions inspection before they can be registered. If this is the case in your state, the seller should provide you with a copy of the emissions inspection certificate.
Maintenance Records
If the seller has any maintenance records for the motorcycle, they should be provided to you. This can help you get a sense of the condition of the motorcycle and any potential problems that it may have.
Warranty
If the motorcycle comes with a warranty, the seller should provide you with a copy of the warranty document. This will outline the terms and conditions of the warranty, including what is covered and for how long.
