What Is a Dirt Bike Bill of Sale?
A dirt bike bill of sale is a legal document showing the transfer of ownership of the dirt bike from a seller to a buyer.
The bill of sale details the terms of sale, such as the sale price, the date of transfer, and the names and contact information of the parties.
Why Do You Need a Dirt Bike Bill of Sale?
Whenever an item, especially one of value like a dirt bike is bought or sold, the parties should create a bill of sale.
Some states may require dirt bikes to be registered or titled, and you may need a bill of sale to prove ownership when transferring the title.
Even if you do not need to title or register your dirt bike, you should have some legal document proving your bike ownership.
What Documents Do I Need to Transfer a Dirt Bike?
If your state requires a title or registration for a dirt bike, you will need the following:
- The current title, signed by the current owner (the seller)
- A bill of sale or Manufacturer’s Statement of Origin (typically for brand-new dirt bikes)
- Proof of identification and proof of residency
- Registration and title fees
You may need other documents if the dirt bike must be titled and it comes from out of state. Check your DMV’s website.
