Subject: RE: VIN Identification

I'm using them right now in my quest to have the year "corrected" from
1972 to 1971 so that the State of Florida will be happy. I tried to do
it through Minnesota (previously titled there), but they put the blame
on Kansas (because the bike had previously been titled there). Kansas
will not accept in out of state inspections, so I would have to ride the
bike there just to have it inspected by them. That was the straw the
broke my back. I gave up on the quest to have it fixed for $10 and a
little wait. $75 seems cheap now that I've been tossed from state to
state.

As for 5 digit VINS, first try calling back later - as you suggest. It's
likely you'll speak with a more knowledgeable person the second time
around. But, who knows? It is the DMV! You may end up speaking with
someone even less knowledgeable :>

Keith,

For $75 you can get a new title done withhttp://www.its-titles.com/.
Great
folks and fast. They will send you a title in your name for the bike
from
their state and all you have to do is go to your DMV and get a new State
title for Illinois. Easy as pie. :)

My frame and engine match, but ehre is te strange thing. Went to file
for a
lost title, from Wisconsin, and they said that the 5 digit number could
not
be the vin and I needed to have the state reissue a new vin!
Told the girl that I willc all abck another time when I can get someone
to
talk to who knows the older bike vin system.

I will send it to you soon Paul.

Neil,

A list of sorts is being kept of all VIN's that we have been able to
track down. This is only for historical/reference purposes. I have yet
to do a write up for Greg Bender to give the ranges of VIN's for V700,
Ambo and Eldo's. But I can give you an idea of what year and possibly
the month of the motor if you do not have matching numbers or a data
plate.

For all those who wish to have their VIN added to the record, just
send me an email offline to paullinn (at) comcast . net with the data
on your VIN plate found on the steering neck and your location. If you
can also include if you have a 4 shoe or disc that would be great. To
date we have over
328
Loops recorded.

thanks.. by engine number mine should have gears then...gonna have to
have a proper look as its got a rattle which i was hoping was just a
worn timing chain!

another question - are frame and engine numbers supposed to match?
mine are nothing like each other so hopefully not! also I was looking
on the internet to see if there was info regarding estimated build
dates for engine/frame numbers.. not found it yet - anyone any clues?
