I've bought & sold a number of bikes and seen odd things before, but this is a new one for me.
Looking at a 3 year old used bike, excellent condition, low miles, great price, very excited about it.
But ... the guy never registered it. He has the original bill of sale from the dealership with his name on it and the manufacturer's certificate of origin which has the dealership info and this guys name on it.
The guy did not ride the bike on the track, I believe he just put a plate on from another bike and rode it, not sure, didn't dig into that.
So it is pretty clear he owns it, vin numbers all good, etc.
But ... what will happen at the DMV? Will they try to charge me back fees for 3 years (that this guy should have paid)? Or could this go thru DMV without any big issues?
