Hopefully there is someone from Georgia on here who may be able to point me in the right direction...
So I just purchased a '72 CB450 that was assembled from at least 2 separate bikes. Different VIN on the frame and engine. Naturally there is no title so I have the BOS. I had a police officer over not too long ago to fill out the certification of inspection and he couldn't find either VIN in the GA system. He told me I need to try to find out from the guy who put it together where the parts bikes came from in order for an officer to do a targeted VIN search. Is this true? I have a feeling the guy I bought it from will have no idea where the bikes came from and if that's the case what do I do then?
I plan on calling the Dept. of Revenue tomorrow for some guidance, but right now I'm worried I'll be SOL and have to part the bike out to try and recoup some of my money.
