Most people who buy a new bike have some sort of paper tag from the dealer that would have the shop logo on it or something. But the tag is not the important thing. Here you have to show ownership (bill of sale) and proof of insurance if you get stopped. The 45 days is the "grace period". I have never waited that long, but the option is there to ride until you get it registered through the DMV.

All I can say is I guess things are bit more relaxed here in the south.

Another point of interest is that we no longer have annual vehicle inspections. This was done away with about 10-12 years ago. So, there is no emissions testing or db readings for straight pipe Harley riders either. You can still get ticketed for an unsafe vehicle and broken tail lights and such, but no annual inspection.
