Does anyone know if you can get a title for a scooter with a bill of sale in Indiana. Thanks

That is not the way it works, if you bought it used the owner should of had a title and transferred it over to you. If new then you need a MCO or MSO from the dealer and a bill of sale.
So to answer your question NO.

In Texas it's very common to buy scooters without titles. I have bought three.
This is what we have to do, maybe it will help.
First I go down to the main DMV office. Not the DOT, but the DMV. They will look up the scooter's VIN and check to see if it's reported. If not, they will give you a form for a title.
They will also check to see if the type of scooter is in their files.
If it isn't, I have to get the scooter appraised by either an insurance adjuster or a motorcycle dealership.
This is all for tax purposes.
Once I got that, I fill out all the info and bring everything back to the DMV all to get rejected.
Once I am rejected, I then take that form to an insurance company and get a bond, which costs about $100.
Then I take the bond, my rejection, and all my paper work downtown where you register vehicles.
Pay the taxes, pay for the license, and the plate, and I get the title in the mail a week later.
I don't remember how long you have to wait, but as long as no one makes any claims on it in a certain amount of time, it becomes final.
If someone does, the bond takes care of that.
Hope that helps.

That's pretty crazy. I have heard of getting a "salvaged title" from the DMV. But that's all I know about that

A title service company can handle the paperwork for you for around $150 or so, Google title service. I have personally used ITS and they are a good company, but there are others out there.
