Getting a salvage title

@Vandal

If the title isn’t branded, there really is no way they can know.

The accident would only show up on your driver’s abstract (if it was reported to police and/or you reported it to insurance and filled out that DMV form to report an accident). Even then, I believe, it just says accident.

I’m not sure about how VT DMV works. They might hold you to NY Salvage standards since it’s a NY title. I only say this because I bought my Talon out of Rhode Island and it was a freakin mess because they have different titles and standards. I had to prove that the title and resale forms were perfectly legal in RI before NYDMV would accept it. 3 week battle with that one.

I truthfully couldn’t get any really solid info to help you on the VT DMV site.

Thanks a lot for the info!
I suppose than as long as I don’t try to sell the bike and pass it off as a clean title, or collect for it the event of an accident, there isn’t much to worry about.
