eltatertoto,
Get a second opinion. Most lawyers will tell you that liability release documents aren't worth the paper they are signed on...meaning that you can still be sued simply by claiming gross negligence on your part.
When I sell a bike, I use an email address that doesn't have my real name on it, I don't give my address and meet the buyer at a public place. I only accept cash for the sale and do not offer any proof of the sale..meaning no receipt. I don't make enough money off of selling these bikes to afford a liability insurance policy and don't want to put myself in financial jeopardy. The customer has no proof that they bought the bike from me and I have no problem telling them either when they ask for a receipt and I decline. Some have balked but eventually bought the bike.
