Hello,
I bought my scooter a few years ago and it had a good scooter tag until April 2014. When I go to the Sec. of State this spring what do I need to take there with me? Can I just have my driver license and that's it or do I need the title for the scooter?
-Thanks, E.J.

Did you register your scooter at the time you bought it? Or you didn't do anything at the time?
Different states have different rules, but usually it requires a form to be filled out and signed by the previous owner showing that they sold it to you, the mileage etc. Plus you need the title signed over to you as well. Then you may need to show proof of insurance as well in some states. There is also a safety or state inspection required in some states too. I would check your state's DMV rules and requirements online to get a idea about what you need. They ought to have all the forms that you can download and print out and fill out prior to going into the state office to register it then.

In most states you need a bill of sale with the change of ownership of any vehicle. It can be as simple as a hand written receipt signed by the previous owner indicating the object being sold, the purchase price, and the date, and the names of the buyer and seller. Most states do not require a notary for the bill of sale, check your state's laws to be certain.
