Do I really need a motorcycle bill of sale?
The short answer is yes. In addition to meeting legal requirements to transfer over ownership of the motorcycle in the eyes of the state, it also protects you. Consider the fact that you may not know your family member's driving history or their history of unpaid tickets (or other moving violations). Having a copy of the motorcycle bill of sale in the event that you get a summons for court because they ran the plate or the VIN on the motorcycle, you'd be able to show the court that you no longer own the motorcycle.
