All states have different motor vehicle laws so I really can't answer that question. For example, several people have said to me that since I have S.D. registration and a S.D. title for my bike I should be able to go to my local DMV office and say I just moved to NJ and get it registered in NJ. Unfortunately, NJ doesn't operate like that while other states probably do. NJ has a list of "approved motorcycle manufacturers" and every month I check it and my bike manufacturer isn't listed. I really don't see running into a problem so I'm not overly concerned with the transfer of registration.

Every new automobile and new motorcycle I have purchased required me to pay sales tax on the shipping charge. If you look at the Maroney Sticker, window sticker, on new vehicles on a dealers lot, you'll see the shipping charge is included in the total taxable MSRP.
Best to "bargain" to get a lower total selling price.
