Do the last 6 numbers match VIN on the frame and title?

Do you have a title? The moco can ID make, model, manu date from the VIN.The DMV can tell you if the bike is stolen from the VIN. Mismatched numbers sound like someone was putting a bike together from parts. its not uncommon to buy a frame then a motor, wheels etc. A clean title is important. If this is a project that someone abandoned, getting it inspected, titled becomes a hassle and expensive. Can you post some pics?
