More details to this question:
i received a tag renewal for a BMW 2001 motorcycle (which I do not have). Was about to call police when I wondered if maybe my father (haven's spoke in over a year) had something to do with it. I was told to just sent the tag that he would way it, and realized that he has a motorcycle in my name without my consent. I asked him to take care of it and take me out of this since I never consent and/or signed anything. He told me that I had verbally agreed to put in my name ( I had recollection of him asking me about buying a motorcycle, but never agreed to do it and/or signed anything). Now he sent me a document to sell him the motorcycle (all this via email). I don't know how to proceed, if I should file a police report. Please advice.

This is a very complicated situation that should be reviewed by a lawyer you hire to address the issue. While you might sign the title to him, there may equally be a likelihood that he obtain financing in your name, which he cannot simply "get you out of". Something is smelly in this whole transaction and you would be wise to hire a lawyer to make sure it is controlled if at all possible.
