The legal owner must sign the Certificate of Title transferring ownership to you. You must take that Certificate of Title to the Department of Motor Vehicles and submit it so that a new Certificate of Title can be issued in your name.

Can you put insurance on a motorcycle and drive it if it's not in your name yet?

No. It's the same as with an automobile. You cannot insure a vehicle that you do not have an insurable interest in which generally means that you own the vehicle. If you own the vehicle or motorcycle but are still making payments you are considered the owner.

You put a car in your name for your daughter now you want it outof your name?

Fill out another Pink Slip (change of ownership) listing her as owner, you complete release of ownership section. Here's a hint - If you want to purchase a vehicle for your child 18yrs+ but do not want the financial responsibility of let's say tickets, then put yourself on as lien holder only. If vehicle gets towed you can still get the vehicle out of storage, but if a hold is placed on the vehicle you are responsible for holding the vehicle for the specified time period.
