Swapped vin sticker?!?

Basically the bike is at it should be. The year is not correct on the sticker. Check the steering head and let us know. That will clear all.

Hey guys yea looked into it more. Basically what I have is a 06 with a 03 frame. It was painted over. All the vins match and I had a family friend do a check for me on the vins. All clear. So basically the bike had a frame swap at some point and was painted to look like the 04-06 frame.

Personally I would really question the frame swap. The only reason why you would need to do a frame swap is because the bike is stolen or its been laid down with frame damage but that that point its a total loss and you just buy a new bike.
