How to sell a dirt bike in Nevada
A dirt bike bill of sale records an off-road motorcycle sale with the year, make, model, engine size and VIN. Most dirt bikes are sold without a title because they were never registered for the road, which makes a signed bill of sale the main thing a buyer has to prove ownership.
Seller steps
- Confirm you hold clear title. If a lender is on the title, get the lien release before you list it.
- Agree on the price and fill in the Nevada dirt bike bill of sale above with the buyer. Record the VIN.
- Both parties sign and each keeps a copy. Nevada does not require a notary.
- Sign the title over to the buyer exactly as your name appears on it, and complete the odometer section on the title if the dirt bike has one.
- File a notice of sale or release of liability with the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles if Nevada offers one, remove your plates if the state keeps plates with the seller, and cancel the insurance once the buyer has driven away.
Buyer steps
- Bring the signed bill of sale (or Nevada's Form VP-104), the signed title and your ID to the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles.
- Expect to pay sales or use tax on the price shown on the bill of sale, plus title and registration fees.
- Register within Nevada's deadline, commonly 10 to 30 days from the sale date, to avoid late penalties.
Before you sign
- The VIN is stamped on the steering head.
- Note the hour meter reading and any recent engine work.
- Keep the manufacturer's certificate of origin (MCO) with the bill of sale if you have it.
- Both parties sign and keep a copy.
Why a bill of sale matters for a dirt bike
- Most dirt bikes have no title; this document is the ownership record.
- Needed if the buyer later wants to register it as an OHV or convert it to street legal.
- Records the VIN, which matters because dirt bikes are stolen often.
- Protects a seller from claims once the bike leaves.

Nevada does not require notarization. Two signatures are enough. If you want extra certainty, the ready-to-sign pack includes a notary acknowledgment page you can use anyway.

To the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles or the county office that handles vehicle registration, together with the signed title, proof of insurance where required, and payment for tax and fees.
