Obtaining an ATV title???
Hello,
I purchased a used atv last summer. I'm thinking I want to get a title for it, in case I want to sell it. Anyway, the buyer did not have a title, just a bill of sale. He gave me two of them actually. One from I guess the previous owner, than one from him to me. He was located in CT, and I'm in NJ. I'm just wondering if anyone in NJ knows what I need to do? DMV told me really quickly when I got my driver's license renewed that I need a title from the previous owner. I wasn't in the mood to deal with them, so I just said OK and left. I'm wondering now if I go back, if theres another option? I would think this is a kinda common thing, especially with recreation vehicles, and how many there are out there. I'm also interested in a legitimate website that I can obtain the records for it, similar to Carfax or Autocheck, but for ATVs. Just so I know the records. In the event, I cant get a title, I'm wondering if local Yamaha dealerships will give me problems for service? Will it be a big issue or no? The local one I go to seems real chill and small, and I do have a friend who knows the owner of a kawai/yama dealership. |
all atvs have titles
someone has the title hope he doesn't want it back may be hot! |
Happens here in Ontario Canada, people lose or misplace the ownerships slip, you sure dont park or never sell a ATV forever because you lost a piece of paper.
I bought a old Ski-Doo elan ,the DMT just checked the serial numbers to make sure it was not stolen,from that they know the last owner ,who you better have a sale reciept from then they process a new owners slip. |
I know you can go through a process here in Texas and get a Bonded Title.
Problem is, it's about 300 bucks or more so depending on the atv, it might not be worth it. |

If you lose the title how could you keep from losing a reciept? Easiest thing to do is have the owner get a duplicate title then sign it over to the new owner. You should get a good title before you even try to sell. |

Previous owner bought it on a Ebay. I have original Title with original owner.... But no paperwork was done between. I see your post is from 2008.... How did it turn out for you with NJ DMV? |
