Default anyone ever buy an old bike from ct?

And how much of a pain in the dick was it to get it titled out of state? *might* be going north for a 72 titan this weekend.

Nonexistant. They don't require them for pre 80

Have fun with NJ and titling a non-titled vehicle.

It's possible, and not all that hard, but you will spend the $500 (plus more) you spend on the actual bike to get it legal in NJ. Add to that if the bike ever did have a title (I'm guessing you are taking the current owners word) and its registered somewhere, or was stolen, or any of a million other possibilities.

I'd skip it.

You probably need to get it inspected at the specialized vehicle inspection station in AC.

Supposedly njmvc will generate a title from a notarised bill of sale and an old reg, but from talking to the guy he bought it out of an old barn and is trying to flip it. I doubt he's got any papers. I suppose I could put my want for a ringading bike on hold and just look for a cheap ujm to commute on. Sucks
