StuD Posted September 26, 2009 Share #1 Posted September 26, 2009 Is the piece of frame that the Vin# is attached to (lower right hand side that needs to be removed to slide the motor out) on the 1st gens interchangable???? ie can I take a lower motor frame with Vin# attached from an 84VR & exchange it onto a 90VR ??? :canada: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venturous Randy Posted September 27, 2009 Share #2 Posted September 27, 2009 Are you trying to make a 90 appear to match the title off an 84? RandyA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tupperj Posted September 27, 2009 Share #3 Posted September 27, 2009 Might fit, but then the vin wouldn't match to the one stamped on the steering head. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuD Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share #4 Posted September 27, 2009 Just wondering why they would put a Vin# on a removable piece of frame. How many would bother to check it against the steering head??? Now don't everyone go running out to the garadge & check your Vins :canada: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think any discrepancies would create a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condor Posted September 27, 2009 Share #6 Posted September 27, 2009 The vin number is also stamped on the neck tube of the frame. That's the one they check on a stolen bike. It better match. It also is something that needs to be checked when buying a used Venture. The vin is also stamped on the engine plate. By law here in California if the engine is replaced a form needs to be filed with the DMV... But nobody ever does it... It's not as easy 'washing' a frame as you think...
