Has anyone ever done this? I am in FL, the other party is in CA. How would one go about swapping titles? Drafting contracts?

Thanks in advance!

My advice is, make sure your not getting screwed over.

He is going to ship his bike first. Then the shipper will load my bike and return to him.

900 dollar round trip for the shipper.

When I bought my XT, I did a fly and ride. Granted it was only Dallas Texas area to Clearwater Florida but it was a great experience. Where in Florida and where in California are the endpoints of the trip?

The paperwork wasn't a big deal. Take the California title into the title agency/tax collector and some extra money. It's not a big deal. Took me less than a half an hour to get the paperwork done.

If this is for the SX, I don't believe he'll be able to get a title for it since it doesn't have enough miles.

How many miles does he need?

A fly and ride would be fun, if I could take the time off. I have a daughter due in January, and I'm desperately trying to move before then. So in between having a child and moving, taking any time off is going to be impossible.

In California, used vehicles from out of state need 7500 miles on the clock.

Titles notarized?

There are "ways" (few) around the minimum mileage requirement.
I suggest the CA recipient go here: https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/dmv/detail/pubs/broc hures/howto/htvr9 and do their home work.

My experience:
In '04 I successfully registered a new 49 state bike in CA with less than 7500 miles by playing dumb at the DMV.
I went in to DMV, showed the DMV agent the papers I had, then asked what do I need.
After 2 inspections and a few weeks and payment of required fees and taxes; I had my plate and papers.
