Maddy summaryThis bill requires motorcycle dealers in New York to register every motorcycle at the time of sale, rather than after purchase. It directly affects motorcycle dealers (who must complete registration during the sale) and buyers (who must sign a declaration if purchasing for out-of-state use only). The law mandates dealers to forward signed declarations from out-of-state buyers to the state commissioner, and registration dates are set by the commissioner. This changes the registration process from post-purchase to immediate at the dealership.
