Yes. That is correct. I remember when the state started this tax collection way back. It started when they required titles on ATVs and then the decal. It's very similar to automobiles.

Valve stem seals, most likely. They will leak when the engine is off and the oil pools up, then when it starts, you'll get more smoke as that oil is burned. Once that is burned off, the white smoke lessens, but is still there because the seals continue to leak.

Welcome to the site. Does your exhaust have a lot of white smoke? Is it consistent? Meaning, does the white smoke disappear after running the engine a while or does it always produce the same amount of smoke?

Gas does degrade over time and can cause deposits to build up in the carb if it wasn't drained prior to storage. In the gas tank, too, but any deposits (like brownish spots) that's in the carb can affect how it runs. I always turn the petcock off with the engine running to allow the gas to get burned up out of the carb before I park it.

Welcome to the site. I haven't had to deal with this type of stuff for about 10 years, but I think this all still holds accurate.
It is true in Florida, there were no titles to ATVs before 2002.
I'm not sure the bill of sale will make a difference in regards to the VIN#. It will only determine how much sales tax you are going to pay based on the listed selling price. Now, you could try it and hope that I'm wrong. Just write in the number as you see it and don't forge anything. You don't want to commit any crimes here. Then hand them the bill of sale and see what happens. But, my past experience with Florida DMV offices is a painful one and nothing is ever easy.
I suspect they will give you a form and will demand verification of the VIN# by a police officer or motorcycle shop. They would inspect it and sign it. Just follow the instructions from the DMV and let the inspector (when you find one) write down what they inspect. If they leave a digit off because they can't read it, so be it. It's legally on them now. Not you. This filled out form is what they will use for verification, since they have no info about it.
This whole process the DMV puts us through is to accomplish two things. 1. Prevent theft. 2. To get your money. (this is the biggest one).
Let me know how it goes and good luck!

Welcome to the site. I have little experience with SxS, but I do know the rules at Croom are very outdated and should be rewritten. The rules are not friendly at all to the current off road vehicle owner. And, unfortunately, I don't think anybody there cares. If I lived closer to Ocala, that would be my "go to" place.
