How to check a VIN?

[GPTECHMAN]

how do I do it? where do I go...any online place thats NOT a hassle?

you mean like a carfax.com place for bikes?

uhhh...don't think one exists...and if it did..it's probably a big scam just like carfax.

you can always check DMV (aka Satan's *******) to see if the number is clean.

sean, as far as I know, there is no carfax type of site for bikes. Your best bet would be to call your local DMV and have them run the VIN to see if it is clean, liened, or possibly stolen. It's a long wait on the phone, but worth it for the peace of mind. I had to do this a while back when I first purchased my R6. ;)
