I have a kwestshun......
I did read through a big chunk of all of this, and I didn't read anywhere where it said exactly how many of the other seven bikes actually ran. Does anyone know the answer? Did I miss it somehow?

I'd lay the blame on the two azzholes that screwed up your shiz at eaglemark, whatever the hell that is and caused your bike to sit around for a few years. Why didn't you just get in touch with one of those title companies? I've heard they can get stuff titled no matter what the backstory is.

They don't teach math in school anymore because every handheld device, including a phone, has a calculator, Young people can't even give the correct change for a dollar if a device doesn't tell them how much.

Hate to say, but that has been the case for years...
