you got the title? do you know where the bike is?

If so, call the law and have them meet you there. Show your proof of ownership and take it home with you.

The easiest way to determine this is to call your banker. They can help you with the details. In Texas, repossession is supposed to be a peaceful domestic deal and the police usually will not assist.

A banker will know the ins and outs... I used to be very well versed, as I drove a wrecker, but that's been a number of years ago...

You should've basically had a contract with the guy to make the payments. If he stopped making payments then he has breached the contract. You should be able to take possesion. Surely their is some type of title. Doesn't it have to be registered an insured? You have to have something to say you have an intrest in it in order to insure it.

I think your bank's loan department would be a good place to start. Then you might call the local police office to see if they can tell you what to do as well.

Good Luck.

I know you have to at least inform the police in that city that you are going to repo it.

Your contract should spell out a time frame and what would happen if not adhered to. Along with who pays expenses should something occur.
