The point being that he should not have gotten your money until he had a CLEAR title to give you along with the bike.

At this point, jack him up. Call the Secretary of State's office.......or who ever runs the License/Registration operation in your state. Find out what you should do to twist his tail. You might be able to sell the whole bike for a reasonable price IF you have the title. Parting it out would be a HUGE pain in the butt.

You made one serioius mistake already. Don't make another serious mistake by letting the guy off the hook. If you do, you WILL be sorry.

Have you considered taking it to a shop for an estimate? It looks to be in fair shape. It would be a shame if you unloaded it only to find out that it could be fixed for ~ $100 or so.

Consider your options carefully.
