That price is not too bad. If the owner does not have a current registration that can be signed over to you (continuity of ownership in the states eyes) then you need a title to do the same. The otherway this bike could be registered is if you have a bill of sale from a dealer, not a private owner. That's where a title service would come in. You have to do an ownership check with the state DMV. If the vehicle is not in the state system and does not come up stolen, then a title service (
Broadway Title) can supply you with a bill of sale that the state would accept as proof of ownership.
