Re: 600rr no vin question
Hey guys. I found a 600rr for a good $$$, but theres a problem. THeres no vin on the neck from what the guy says. He says it was a stock track bike. It does not come with a title either. Is there any other place on the frame with the vin number? OR can i check if its not stolen using the engine vin? Should i take it to a police station and have them check it? Can he write me a bill of sale if theres no vin#? Thanks
oh and I'm gonna use is as a lot bike. no streets.

in this situation, dont worry about why it doesny have a vin. just the fact that it doesnt have one now means it will never be street legal, or even lot legal to any cop.

Re: 600rr no vin question
Yea he said its not hot and can give me the bill of sale. But what's he going to put as vin? Sounds shady. Think I'm gonna pass on this one. Although it would still be a good deal if i swapped the frame.
ITs this one: http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/mcy/1218702421.html Doesn't look like it was laid at 5mph too lol.
I ment before i buy it lol

Re: 600rr no vin question
i bought a bike with a FACTORY REPLACEMENT FRAME and they do not have vin numbers. i took it to inspection and got an AZ assigned vin and registered it without problems. Make sure the vin was not scratched off though.

Re: 600rr no vin question
Yea I wish I could find any for that price
Peeps on craigslist ask $4000-5000 for an 01-02 f4i
WTF they stupid or what. KBB value is $3800 and that is for a minty one from a dealer, including their costs, commision and it says still negotiable. I'll have to keep looking. Theres one f4i with clean title for $3000, but no fairing, no gauges, no headlights. Thats a bit too much i guess.
