I got a plate from Vermont for one of my Chinese enduros. Here's what I did. You only need a bill of sale (it doesn't need to be notarized). You will pay sales tax on the purchase amount and fee, but overall it's much less than using a service. Onece you've got the registration you can at least ride it. You may also be able to title it in your state using the Vermont registration (see the link below for how the guy in PA did it).

Here are some posts I made on another site about the process:

I sent in a registration application to Vermont. Sent them $74 for registration and sales tax (went with $500 for the value so as not to raise any flags).

 I just followed the guidance posted at http://www.chinonthetank.com/2014/04/get-a-title-with-a-vermont-registration/. Filled out form, attached bill of sale, computed sales tax + fees, attached check, and mail it all in. That was on 14 August. On 26 August, they deposited the check. Got the tag on 29 August.

If you foul something up, don't worry, they will just send your check back. Highly recommended!
