More details to this question:
I bought a bike from someone. We both didnt realize how to actually give ownership to the other person. So we were both new to this. Turns out, the guy he bought it from was his friend and that he never registered it with the state, so he technally doesnt own it. I still gave him 3k for the bike and all I was given was the tittle (in which I thought was good) but it was messed up, so the tittle is useless l. Now, the guy is taking forever to fix this. Im about to just ask him for the 3k back in till he gets this fixed. Can I take him to court if need be with only a text messagse of him stating the price and other text messages talks?

You can always sue, but you may not be able to make the owner give you title and the seller to actually repay you. Winning n court just gives you a piece of paper called a judgment, not actual money.
