Keep your signed bill of sale and the assigned title together and file as soon as you can, even if registration plates will be transferred later.

ATV mechanical pre-purchase checklist for Floresville buyers

Before you sign the Floresville bill of sale, walk through this inspection on theatv. A pre-purchase inspection costs $100-200 and routinely uncovers $1,000+ in deferred maintenance — that is the figure you negotiate off the price or walk away from entirely. Use this list as your shortlist when you meet the seller or when a local mechanic looks the vehicle over.

Common mechanical issues to inspect

• Check engine oil for fuel dilution (common on carbureted models stored wet)
• Inspect drive belt condition on belt-drive Polaris/Can-Am models
• Verify front and rear differential fluid for water contamination
• Test compression and listen for top-end knock on high-hour 2-strokes
• Inspect a-arm bushings and ball joints for play (creek-crossing wear)
• Check airbox and intake snorkel for water ingestion stains

Safety checkpoints

• Check CV boots and axle condition — the most common failure point on ATVs
• Inspect skid plate and frame for cracks from off-road impacts
• Verify winch operation if equipped
• Test 4WD engagement and differential lock
• Confirm parking brake holds on a slope
• Verify throttle limiter is intact and free of binding

Title documentation notes. ATV titling is state-dependent: some states (e.g., California, Idaho, Texas) issue OHV titles, while others treat ATVs as personal property transferred with a bill of sale only. States that require titles use the manufacturer’s frame stamping or a Manufacturer’s Statement of Origin (MSO) for new units. Federal odometer disclosure does not apply, and many states issue a green/red OHV decal in lieu of a license plate.
