Some suggestions
When you first see the bike, feel near the engine to see if it's warm, if it is come back at another time to see how it starts when the engine's cool. Check near the fork seals for any leakage. Bounce the forks a few times to make sure no oil leaks. Look at the condition of the sprockets and chain. Check the VIN number and run it through the DMV just to make sure everything is on the up and up. If there are aftermarket parts on it, I always ask when they were put on and if they have the OEM parts. It's always good to have a friend that knows about bikes to have along with you when you look at it.
As for the title, both parties sign it on the appropriate lines have it notarized and all is good.
