Motorcycle Bill of Sale example — FAQ

Does a motorcycle bill of sale need a VIN?

Yes. The 17-character VIN uniquely identifies the motorcycle and is required to register it. Our tool checks that the VIN is the correct length.

Is a motorcycle bill of sale the same as a title?

No. The title proves and transfers ownership; the bill of sale documents the sale and price. You typically need both to register the motorcycle.

Do I need a bill of sale to register a motorcycle?

Many states require it (or use it to set sales tax). Check your state page for the exact requirement and whether notarization applies.

Can a bill of sale be handwritten?

Yes. A handwritten bill of sale is legal as long as it includes the required details — the parties, a description of the item, the price, the date, and both signatures. Using a structured template simply makes sure nothing important is left out.
