(a) The individual who built the motorcycle who will personally use the motorcycle;
(b) A specific known prospective owner of the motorcycle who is purchasing the motorcycle at retail; or
(c) A person engaged in the business of building and selling motorcycles who is building the motorcycle for purposes of retail sale to an unknown buyer.
(2) A person who has either personally custom-built a motorcycle or who has purchased a custom-built motorcycle shall be issued a first certificate of title after complying with the provisions of this subsection. The person shall, prior to applying for the certificate of title, apply to the Transportation Cabinet for a vehicle identification number under the provisions of KRS § 186A.090. When applying for a first certificate of title for a custom-built motorcycle, the person shall apply in the office of the county clerk of the county in which he or she resides and provide the clerk with the following:
(a) Written documentation authenticating that one hundred percent (100%) of the parts used to assemble the custom-built motorcycle are new parts purchased from either a wholesale or retail supplier that have never been used;
(b) Proof of insurance to comply with the provisions of KRS § 304.39-080; and
(c) Other information that may be required by the Transportation Cabinet in an administrative regulation promulgated under KRS Chapter 13A. If the cabinet fails to promulgate an administrative regulation governing custom-built motorcycles, the only documentation a person applying for a first certificate of title for a custom-built motorcycle shall be required to present to the county clerk is the information required under paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subsection.
(3) The Transportation Cabinet shall not classify a custom-built motorcycle as a salvage or rebuilt vehicle and shall not subject a custom-built motorcycle to the provisions of this chapter governing salvage or rebuilt vehicles.
