Thats definitely fishy. The story somewhat makes sense but still too risky. Plus $500 bucks for a stock frame with no VIN or title :wacko:

i can buy a frame from a yamaha dealer for 563.00 brand new, but no vin #s,

what good is a frame with no vin

I dont think factory replacement frames come with a vin. Probably have to go thru some crap to get a vin tru the state.

Here in Utah you have to get one of the dim wits behind the counter at the DMV to look at your frame, and verify there is no VIN#, then they issue you a stamped state issued id/vin tag that you have to rivet onto the frame, then get them to re inspect it to verify that its on there. Kind of a hassle.

if your buulding a drag banshee why would you waste money on a brand new quad that you are only gonna use 2% of?

I mean really what would you use off a stock banshee other than the bearings and transmission.

i don`t know what the guy is trying to do.but it is the shady way, you can`t just grind a vin off a frame, then stamp it on another.to get a title for my drag frame i had to go through the dmv, special construction application,pics, certified mechanic inspection,and all reciepts ,do the hokey pokey and turn myself around.then maybe, just maybe they would issue me a reconstruction title.

A buddy of mine has a stock modified chromoly frame. The guy that did the frame cut the piece with the vin number off the bike and bolted it on the new one. Thats how he got around having to have it inspected and all that BS. Replacement frames from yamaha do not come with vin, your right.

i think i'd stay away from this one. if a new one from the dealer is about the same price, i'd go that route. this one just seems to be to risky, and it's not even a good deal. B)
