ATV Bill of Sale

Some states title ATVs and side-by-sides, others only register them, and a few do neither. In the untitled states the bill of sale is the ownership document, so the VIN and the seller's signature matter.

Questions people ask

Do ATVs have titles?

In many states yes (Texas issues ATV titles, for example); in others they are only registered for trail use. Either way, a signed bill of sale is what a buyer needs to prove they own it.
