Get in touch with the insurance company you plan to insure the bike with or even the DMV for that matter and ask them how to get a legal binder on the bike so you can title it and ride. I know several people that have had to do this because of lost titles and such over time.

 

i have some friends that can pay this guy a little visit and i promise he will get the paperwork. holler at your boy if you need it. lol

 

Hi
The chap whom should have already sent you the documents is obviously hiding something, it could be that he has lost or miss placed the documents or he could have smashed it up and sold it to you then reported it as stolen and retrieved the money from his insurance company ?, or maybe he is lazy or just rude.
In the UK the bike frame and engine serial numbers and recorded on a document called a V5, if the owner can prove that the machine is there possession (they have a receipt for the sale of the machine etc) the owner can request a new V5 from the "Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency" (DVLA) be sent to them with the new owners details, is there any procedure in the U.S that is similar?.
Although it would be satisfying to nock the seller about and take what is rightfully yours it might save you allot of time and heartache to purchase a pre owned 05 RR frame.

Regards
Jim

 

yo mang...if you have the paperwork that money was transferred and that he gave you the wrecked frame, take the VIN to the po po or DMV and see if dude reported it stolen.
