Congrats! 
As for the title transfer, it's easy. Make sure the everything on the title matches everything on the bike (VIN#, mileage, etc.). Upon payment, the seller should hand over the title to you with proper DMV paperwork (transfer of registration), and you get to pay for taxes through the DMV.
If the buyer still has a lienholder, make sure you make direct payment to the bank/lienholder instead of through the buyer, along with any DMV paperwork the bank/lienholder requires.
There are ways to transport a bike, but it does get expensive. I would estimate about $200 minimum for something about 100 miles away. Where is the bike at? Where are you located?
Get that bike soon so we can go for a ride...
