I have a 2005 vtx1300, I have had several members contact me away from here already, and bought some parts. The bike was hit in the front end and severely bent the forks. There is no title for bike or else I was gonna rebuild it. I have many good parts left. Let me know if you need anything. Thanks

How much for the frame and motor? BY the frame, what I really mean is everything it takes for the motor to operate like the radiator, electronic box etc. I am seriously considering building a large go cart buggy. The VTX motor would be as good as any to experiemtn with for that. How many miles on it?

The motor only has 2200 miles on it, I have the complete wiring harness and cdi box, carbs are gone, and the radiator was damaged(leaking). I would like 700 for the motor and cdi, harness. I see the motors on fleabay and those guys are asking crazy prices for them. Let me know

You say the "carbs" are missing. There would only be one carb! Sorry to say I won't be interested. This project of mine is limited to a running motor setup. I don't need a second project to work on the motor after getting it mounted. I am in no hurry. I am kind of looking for a motor still sitting in a frame where I can cut the front and rear off, yet leave the motor mounted in the frame per say. I would weld that frame to the frame of my cart etc. I have been looking at an inline 4 off a Honda 750. I would really rather have a water cooled setup overall.
Good luck seeling your parts. I am sure lots of folks around here will need some of them.

If I had seen the bike before I would get the whole thing.

In Or. if you have a frame, you have to have the paper work to match.
I beleave this also applys for the motor.
Every bike has a Number on it and has a title.
What happened to the title????
This stops the chop shops. Also stops people from riping off bikes and selling the parts.
Not saying thats what it is, but just wondering. :dontknow:

You dont want to say what happened to the title.

From what I understand or what I have been told, you can give any insurance agent a vin # and they can tell you more than the police can, stolen, totaled, rebuilt, etc... Their database is nation wide...... I have never tested the theory but I had a police occifer tell me this.

Just in case you are thinking what I think you are thinking.
The bike for this parts is black and it's a 2006
I was there next to it and it's from a business ( deals mostly w/ GWs).
Just for you to know!
Carioca.
PS: I read the post about your bike and because of it, no one will test drive my bike ( if I'm selling it ) without leaving cash on my hand before the test, to avoid theft as well as problems if the " tester" let it down.
on the other hand I think posting about your bike on this post is ( to say the least ) A BAD WAY TO DO THINGS.
I understand your situation but there are a bunch of people selling stuff on this board, on E-bay, Craig's list and other boards and till today I have never seen someone do the same you did. You just made in the mind of some people some doubt about the integrity of this guy ( selling the parts) .

PS: Before someone says something: I'm not related, don't work w/ the guy and never had any contact w/ him before 2 weeks ago, and I did so, due to a post on this board.

Your right that was a pretty crappy way to get a message out the $6000 bike that I had stolen, I hijacked another persons post. Sorry about that. After all it was my own fault for trusting someone I don't even know. I never meant to hint that this posted parts bike might be mine but I don't know that for sure either since the failure to produce a title is none of anyones bussiness.
I will delete my previous post.
I'm all ears if you have a better way to locate my bike. I'm unemployeed since last November after 32 years working the same job and could really use the money I was selling the bike for, to support my own family, this was a big hit on my wallet. Thanks for reading and I hope I didn't offend anyone. Steve :oops:

To Bracketshark
Don't get me wrong. I feel very bad for what happened to you, and I think that one of the ways to try to recoup would be looking at E-bay for parts of a VTX on the adjacent area were You believe the guy did come from as well at Craig's List.
Anyway I stand by my initial opinion.
I do not know how you feel, but I can imagine !
I believe that what I just wrote above was already said by someone on your original post and as I said before, due to that post, no one ( I meant nobody whatsoever ) will ever take my bike for a ride w/out cash in my hands( apply to anything I may be selling)
To Wayne :
Wayne sorry, but I would give you the same response. You did not ask If there was papers ( title) only, You come up saying that you were "wondering" about it and that there are Chop Shops around selling "stolen parts ) Not said stolen but implied . I believe that's not the way to "ask" questions . This guy could not have said " I have no title ". He could just not say it and no one would ask as nobody asks on this board if the parts if the parts being sold are stolen or not. - If you bought something on the "For sale board" have you asked that question?
As I said on my first post. I do not know the guy as well and never met Him before I went there to get a couple of parts ( by the way- He asked me to wait while He was going to give me a receipt and I declined ).
You should ask some member from the area to check out the bike ( I would have done as someone on nthis board did for me once ago).
Like people say -- Is not what you say but HOW you say it.
Carioca.

07-01-2009, 06:20 PM
Thank you, people who have seen the bike know exactly what the title situation is. If you(Wayne) had asked me in a more appropiate way about the title I would have been more than happy to explain. I offer receipts for everything. I just got a little defensive when you were suggesting "chop shop". Wouldn't you? I can't stand a thief. I buy many,many bikes. Do you think I am that dumb that I don't run the vin numbers? Do you think I would risk my family,business,home in dealing stolen goods? I have never been afraid to show the bike. If you want to fly here I will be more than happy to show you too. But next time you start throwing things out, make sure you can back it up, or you might not like that answer you get. I would have acted the same way in person and thrown you out of my shop. Please dont insult my integrity.

Why don't you post pics showing the problem and then everyone will see what you're talking about.
Seems (if there is nothing else on that ) like you had a bad experience and I would like ( as well as other members ) to ask to anyone that bought parts from Him, to chime in and tell abou the deals w/ the seller to see if ust happened w/ you or if there is a pattern.

Yes I did read he posts and still asking: Do You ask people on this forum ( parts for sale),Craig's List, E-Bay, etc.... if the have the title of the bikes from what the parts are comming from? --
I do not !, and if I did and the response was " none of my business" I would understand.
Now if You are buying the full bike , the engine or the frame, the question is valid.
By the way! There are a bunch of bikes being sold ( E-bay/ Craig's List) that have a statement " no title "--- but if the seller is a business and give you a bill of sale, that "bill of sale" will be accepted by most ( maybe all) DMVs in the US.

PS: There is at least a Guy in this forum that sell a bunch of parts ( Just look on the classifieds and you will see who I'm talking about) tha seems to be a very trustworthy and decent person. He sold parts/ engines/frames etc..., and I do not recall anyone ( Including You )asking if He had a title for the wrecked bikes from where the parts were coming from.

Guy miraculously just has a bike he's parting out.
He has no proof of title (ownership) or rather, won't share it with anyone, saying it's none of their business??
To the two running the scene (or scam) here. . . Carioca and ut1volsman:
Look at it from the buyers perspective. . a deal too good to be true, with 0 proof that its not hot. . and when asked for said proof being told "it's none of your business" . . . uh, actually it is. I for one wouldn't want to have anything to do with stolen items. And this right here seems pretty freakin fishy.
Good luck selling off your stolen parts. I hope you get caught.

I have no dog in the fight however the guy is selling the motor still in the frame which has the VIN on it, you could take the numbers to the DMV and find out if it was hot, I do watch the show "worlds dumbest criminals" and this would fit right up there some of those but I really don't think this is the case. But it is no reason to sell bad parts like is Daves case, if you sell a part you need to stand behind it. He should man up and take responsability for the signals :dontknow:

Davemack :
You posted " NONE OF MY BUSINESS" , " VESTED INTEREST" and told me to " F... UP ! :
My answer is :
1 ) Yes, NONE OF MY BUSINESS till You post on a board to everyone to see. " YOU MADE IT MY BUSINESS ".
2 ) I have no " VESTED INTEREST", on the deal, but felt bad, since after buying 2 pieces from the "seller" ( due to a post from another member of this same forum) I told Him " the seller" to try to post on the VTXOA board, so another members could get parts they might needed, so when I asked You to show to everyone what the problem was and also asked other members that bought parts from the "seller" to chime in and tell if hey had similar problems, I was trying to see if I made a mistake or not since there are people that buy used parts and want to get new ones.
3 ) " F...UP " . By your response I started wondering if because the same atitude You are getting no response from the "seller"
To VTX1300cnME:
You tell on Your post : To the two running the scene ( or Scam).
I do not run a "scene" much less a Scam, in fact I only met the 'SELLER" once. Now, before accusing anyone of scammer You should be sure that the complain ( from the buyer ) is legit. I have seen people jump on the bandwagon and later found they made a mistake ( or were misguided somehow).
Do not call me or anyone You don't know a scammer unless you are looking on the mirror.
And I do not sell parts for a living, as a matter of fact I do not sell. What You just wrote would be a good case for for a Layer, but at the end, "You are Who You are"... Good Luck.
In another note- FEV is correct. There are ways ( If you are buying a frame or motor ) to check if it's legal or not. The member that asked If there was a title or not.should look at his post ( when He asked ) and see that the question come just because someone had a bike stolen ( thousand of miles from where the seller is) and posted it on the "seller's" post. and, in my opinion when the "seller" said " (before the question)no title. I guess He was being honest. Anyway, as I said before : A BILL OF SALE PROVIDED BY A LICENSED BUSINESS IS GOOD FOR PARTS ( MOTORS/FRAMES ETC.)BUT THERE ARE BIKES THAT HAVE NO TITLE AND EVEN W/ BILL OF SALE THEYCAN'T BE REGISTERED.

The 100% truth here bro!
I patiently waited for a response from Him and He did not reply. And as you can see my deal was anything but smooth with him.
Just look at my thread. I'm embarrassed that I had to even post this up here and than you call me out to go do something for you & post pictures!?
What is wrong with you!?
As I said You are more than welcome to come take a look at what I bought and was shipped from him. As far as telling you to shut the f- up, I'm sorry if that ruffelled your feathers but I was taking what you said as if you didn't and don't believe me, I can tell you that others from this board have seen what he shipped me and you are more than welcome to go find them yourself, because I'm not dropping to your level and getting them involved in this, unlike what you did on this matter! You are way out of bounds to even get envolved in something that has nothing to do with you unless you feel your at fault in some way and want to make good on the bad deal I got! If so drop me a PM, If not than stay off my back!
I gave this dude way over a month to make things right, I pm'd Him, I called Him and he answered His phone only after I blocked my number, go fig! He agreed to give back half of my money over 3 weeks ago since only the 1 light was bad we agreed to a settlement. I was even willing to pay to send the bad light back to him if he did. He has done nothing to this point. So what do yo want me to do, not like I really care what you want!
So at the risk of not getting anything back from Him at all, not like he was going to step to the plate anyway!
I'm letting everyone know he is not a good seller to deal with on here in the hopes of saving someone else on our board some grief!
http://thatwoman.files.wordpress.com/2008/11/buyerbeware.gif
If your deals with Him went fine, well than good for you and I noted that already
as well as others did. Now step off and mind ur own business!

OK, tiger:
first problem, reread some of what you wrote in response especially the bold faced stuff. . your verb tenses are off, you use the complete wrong syntax or words all together (indicative of a scammer from a foreign country)
second problem, you (or whoever is selling the bike parts) is going above and beyond, I have NEVER seen someone part a bike out like I've seen done here. (indicative of a chop job trying to part out for maximum return)
third problem, no title. If the bike is legit and the bike is an honest parts dump, there should be no problem getting the title to prove ownership of the bike, the simple fact that the title can not, or will not be produced is EXTREMELY FISHY
Last point, I have two issues: 1) for only meeting the seller (for the first time, by your own admission) of this bike once, you seem to be a pretty vocal supporter. (indicative of a tag team scam, one person with parts, a second person claiming to be independent voucher) and 2) you seem exceedingly quick to go to a litigation process (saying my statements are good for a lawyer) :roll: yeah, good luck there sunshine. Seems like your trying to deflect a lot of legit questions with foolish statements like "you should just trust" or "you don't know what the case is" or your best veiled threat yet, "I'll get a lawyer involved" . . . how bout this, provide something to back up your side of the story, I'm not the only person calling BS on this too good to be true deal going on here. . that maybe say something?? Come on.
By trying to glaze over a few more mundane things, you're starting to paint a very problematic picture. . . I really don't expect a logical response here. I suspect it'll be something more along the lines of I don't know what I'm talking about or it is what it is, or whatever, which will only be MORE QUESTION DODGING because the seller of this bike is less then on the level. . Good luck to anyone trying to get parts off this "legit bike". . I hope it goes better for the rest of you then it did Davemack.

My brother wrecked one of my bikes several years back, the fork tubes were bent and the neck tweeked so they totaled it. Nothing else what so ever was wrong with the bike 2500 miles on it, they paid me for it and I bought it back from the insurance company for I think around $800 or $1000 after my deductable. I received a salvage certificate was all, I didn't have to buy it back I could of let it go to the insurance company but I took a chance on trying to recoupe some of my money. I completly stripped it down and parted it out on ebay and ended up making about $2500 more than I bought it back for. If there would of been a forum back then that I known about I would of tried to unload the parts there first to save on ebay fees........stuff like this happens all the time. :dontknow::dontknow: In fact thats what I do ever time I get a chance to buy a bike at a decent price, I've bought several bikes from storage shed unites that people didn't pay there leases and the owner of the storage shed auctioned off the contents, I bought a 1983 yamaha XJ750 maxim in MINT condition with 4300 miles for $300 in one auction, here in Illinois you can NOT get a title for the bike, the only think I could get was a bill of sell, I hated to do because after I cleaned the carbs and put in a new battery it ran and looked like it just came off the show room floor, but I stripped it down and ebayed it and made of $2000 profit. Like I said, the guy should of checked the lights out before sending out the item, dave did get ripped off in my opinion but I really don't think in any of the responces there is justification to call someone a thief just because he told someone the title was none of their business.

I gotta disagree a bit here. If a prospective customer asks about the title, and you don't have it, let them know what you do have that will verify ownership so the buyer knows he is not buying a hot item. Telling him it's none of his business is a MAJOR red flag that something is not on the up.

After reading thru this entire thread, I feel that I need to chime in a bit, also.
Getting your hands on a bike - whether from a private sale, insurance sale or (storage or impound) auction - the bike should come with some type of paperwork - a bill of sale or a title. The seller should be pretty much up-front about how he came into possession of the bike and why he's parting it out.
If a prospective (parts or whole unit) purchaser requests about the seller's paperwork for the bike, and proof of ownership for the engine and/or frame, I feel that he's perfectly within his rights to inquire. The seller should at least provide the VIN# so that a prospective purchaser can check out to see if the bike is legit. Stolen bike VIN#s do show up on several web accessible sites.
Due to the fact that there are, at any one time, hundreds of used parts floating on the "For Sale" section of this and other forums, the buyer does have a right to ask some questions and to expect them to be answered promptly, within a reasonable amount of time.
Now when a deal is being negotiated, the seller should be "up front" about the condition of the parts to the best of his/her knowledge. The buyer should be aware that sometimes a seller may not be able to guarantee that there is not any "functional problems" with the parts that he is buying, particularly with electrical parts. However, if the price is “outstanding”, such as $25 for a set of front turnsignals (and bar), then you have got to figure that some work may be required to get them fully functional again. By the same token, the seller should point out that there is a considerable amount of wiring problems (splices) that will need to be fixed and that’s why the price is so cheap.
The sellers need to be very “up front” when selling items on the forums. The buyers should expect a fair value for their money, but not expect to get a gold ring when they’re paying for a pull-tab, either.
However, should a problem arise when the buyer takes possession of the item and attempts to contact the seller, the seller should make every effort to return the contact. If at that time they can’t come to some type of agreement that is satisfactory to both parties, then the buyer may just need to back away and suffer his/her “loss” … with a “lessons learned” in the process.
If it’s a case of the seller not returning the buyer’s contacts or not living up to the renegotiated deal in an agreed upon timely manner, then the buyer has a responsibility to post a warning to other potential customers of that particular seller. I respect both Davemack and VTX1300cnME as long-time forum members in good standing. I respect Davemack for his attempts to contact the seller, and allowing him the opportunity to try and “make the deal right”. I also respect him for his post for others to beware of a seller who does not respond in a timely manner or who may have misrepresented a part for sale. I respect VTX1300cnME for trying to put some insights onto this ordeal and for his attempts to keep things on an even keel between the parties.
The seller - ut1volsman – didn’t have that many posts, and that should probably been the first tip-off that something may not have been quite right. However, if others have purchased parts successfully from the seller, then maybe it’s one bad deal from the start and all of the remainder of his customers may be perfectly happy with the deals that they received.
As for Carioca coming to ut1volsman’s defense as a “satisfied customer”, it highly possible that just may be the case. However, although Carioca has many posts listed to his profile, this is the first time that I have personally seen any input from him. I think that most participants on this thread need to back it down at this point and let this issue lay. I feel that Davemack was correct to post a “Buyer Beware”, based upon his personal experiences with the seller. However, I also don’t have the entire picture with which to judge this scenario. The seller may have some good reason as to why he has not acted (or not taken appropriate steps) to work out an equitable resolution to the issue.
Whatever the reasons are on both sides, I, for one, appreciate any “Buyer Beware” that is posted. It’s up to me whether I trust shelling out my hard-earned cash to a seller under any circumstances after that.

Seems that You know that some bikes ( for whatever reason is) sometimes do not have title, instead they have " bill of sale"
You're right ! Under some circunstances, a bike sold "in parts" can bring more then if it was sold complete.
"Someone" who is not the buyer, just jumped and accused the seller ( and myself) of " running the scene ( or scam)" and I do not think that He has seen the problem ( just jumped in) or even knows if the complaint is true.
Cybrhic:
I agree w/You till a certain point: If a "prospective buyer" asks if there are ( title and or bill of sale ) for the part He wants tro buy , then I believe the seller should explain, or show proof. Also depends on how the question is asked. What I saw on an earlier post was someone saying " No title?, it's very fishy since there are many chop places around". To me is not what You ask, but, How you ask!
Madness MC:
One of your points I guess I answer it above ( for Cybrhic ).
The price is another: Some people just jump on a very lower price and because that they tend to forget to ask all questions, and after the deal is made they ask for refunds/money back etc...
Also, You being in the motorcycle business should understand that Many people sell parts as they were removed. Better say: If someone is selling turn signals and they are working fine when removed, I do not believe that person will dismantle the part to see if there are splices on the wire or not.
DearMadness MC, I believe you have not seen many posts from me, but, understand that I jumped on this one for the reason that was myself who told this Guy (ut1volsman) to post on the "for sale", just after learn about him on this board and bought two parts from him ,and ,as I have said earlier I asked if some other members who bought from him to chime in and tell if there were "problems" I have jumped before ( for another members ) on posts like that, because there is only one side of the story and you being in the business should know what I'm talking about
VTX1300cnME:
To You : If I was defending the "seller" ( and I was not ) I would have a reason ( I bought parts from Him ). Now You accusing a person that you never met or even bought something just because someone said so, is a bit fishy(?) Do You have turn signals for sale ?
Due to your intelligence I believe that even w/ my bad english , you could understand what I tried (very hard) to say to you .
I must apologize for my verb tenses, wrong sintax etc.. but please understand I'm a foreigner, or as you said " a scammer from a foreign country" and even knowing that I can comunicate ( read and write w/ errors ) in 3 other languages ( as you probably also can ) I do not master them ( Only master my native language) and I do not insult anyone in any of the three, So, I'm very sorry.

"It's none of your business" is the WRONG answer every time. Sorry you don't see it that way. If you come in here with a very low post count/recent join date, many are already a bit leary of you from the get go. Then, to cop an attitude, you just made sure you are seen in a negative light. Regardless of your post count, or seniority here, giving an answer of "it's none of your business" was a mistake no matter how the question was asked.
It was a legitimate request as possesion of a stolen frame or engine (both are serialized with a VIN#) is a crime. If this guy had any credibility, he would have answered the question with "I don't have the title, but here is the VIN#" or "I don't have a title but I do have the bill of sale", or something to that effect. "It's none of your business" imediately tells me this guy is hiding something. I'm not saying you are involved, or even privy to that info, but his response is a clear sign that he is trying to keep something from the potential buyers. And refuseing to make good on his promise to set things right with Davemack solidifies that. You sticking up for him because you met him once is only making you look bad. JMHO

The only thing I'll add, as this has gotten out of hand, is that in the origional post the poster said the frame and motor was for sale, if the seller was selling a chopped bike do you really think they would sell the motor and frame????? AND give you their # and address to come pick things up???? Sometimes it requires just a little common sense. The "none of your business" sounds wrong and don't make good business since if your trying to sell parts plain and simple, but unless you were buying the frame or motor then really it is no one's business why the guy parts out his bike......it's no crime to part out a perfectly good bike, and no reason lable someone a thief or insinuate someone is selling hot parts or running a chop shop just because you don't like their answer, sometimes it just makes more sense for a seller financially. The 5 + years I've been on here I've seen people steal others ideas on products......home made tools..... run questionable raffels and many other things thats not right in others eyes, it just seems sometimes were too quick to brand someone because they don't believe the same things we believe, this is one of those things that neither person is wrong. The real and ONLY issue is Dave bought a part and it turned out to be bad, the seller should of stepped up and refunded his money and if he wanted the part back, paid shipping for him to send it back, plain and simple, this thread wouldn't even exist and no one would be a thief...... if the part turned out to be in excellent condition would we still be talking about chopped bikes and hot parts, what would we be talking about right now :dontknow::dontknow:
