ATV Florida Forum

I was looking to pick up a new/used bike..the bike is from TN and the seller said theres no title..he said that in TN for 2005 they did not offer a title with the bike only a dealers BOS..so I Googled a lot and seen other people talking about this as well...that after having the dealers BOS you can go to the DMV of that state and get a State title for the quad...dose any one know if they only offered a BOS from the dealers in TN? or just any info that might help?

TN does not require titles, but Florida does. The dealer should have also given the purchaser an MSO. It is basically the paper that the state issues the title against. You will need the BOS and MSO to get a title in Florida. You will also have to pay taxes and the 1 time registration in Florida.

I bought a brand new 05 Rincon in TN, they give you a Manufacturers Certificate Of Origin.

Scrub is right, you have to pay fl sales tax and reg fee to reg it in fl.

I can't remember if the C of O was in my name or just specific to the bike only.

Make sure that they give you the C of O as well as a bill of sale.

I would check what documentation the seller has, making sure they are specific with the info, and then ask your tax collectors office, if that is sufficient to transfer it.

 

thanxs for the info...

The Certificate of Origin will have the original purchaser's name on it. You'll need that AND a bill of sale from the owner listed on the Certificate of Origin. Don't buy it without getting those 2 documents or you can only ride on private property.
