Better make sure the frame is straight if it's been crashed.

I would think there are better track bikes out there than a 650R in the same price range. Isn't the suspension non-adjustable? I've ridden one and it's a nice street bike (nice and comfy) but it seemed pretty heavy and too upright for track duty.

Suspension has been upgraded. With all the extra stuff it comes with, plus all the changes I would ever want to make, I think this is worth it. Of course I could find some beat GSXR for less, or a first gen SV, but everyone has them. All I would need for this one is to pick it up a put in fuel. It has lower bars and aftermarket rearsets- that fixes that. It's no heavier than an SV either.

Anyone know if AAA can do a VIN search relatively cheaply/easily? Pretty much the only thing stopping me now is the lack of title. Besides my legality questions, it's going to be hard to unload when the time comes. I've heard it's fine to sell a track bike with no title, but I don't know how exactly it works. I don't want to put this on the road. May end up applying for a R/Salvage title.

Assuming I get all the right answers to my latest email, anyone know where I can find a decent free bill of sale?
