Anyone shed light on what is involved in doing a title search on a vintage? To my knowledge, my bike never actually had a license plate, can't, of course, be certain....so what steps can be taken to get it road licensed?

(1960 or so bike)

Thx in advance,
Gordon

If you check with your local DMV, they can tell you what is needed. They may want to inspect the serial# on the bike. They usually like some sort of "paper trail' of ownership, or a "Statement of Facts". Hope that helps, Mike.

It depends on what stste you are in Vermont only requires a bill of sale..If you like I could send you a bill of sale stating that you bought it from me and it was last owned in Vt. The state DMV does title anything older than 15yo. and nothing made before 1973 was titled. Some other ststes have the same deal. MK
