FYI,,,,,, I recently applied for a bonded title here in Illinois because the bike didn't have a title. I had the Ill. State police inspect the bike too and they wrote the engine number on the inspection report to be used as the VIN #, got all my paperwork together mailed it in and then was told by the Secretary of State in Springfield, Ill in the bonded title dept. that they want the frame number to be used because you can always change out the motor so I had to resubmit all the paperwork again. Got my new title in the mail today ,,,,
