I had to read some of your posts to see what you were talking about,,, if it was given to you and you have no bill of sale it sounds like you need to talk to someone at your local DMV as to what you need to do to get the proper paper work to be able to legally sell it.

i found the remains of numbers on the neck on the downtube. looks like they have been ground off.... all i could see was j1519? the nine is questionable though. does this ring a bell for anyone? does it mean it might be stolen?

Yes,it could be a recovered stolen bike.
I was not following your old posts.
Do you have cuurent registration?Do the numbers on the title match the tag on the bike?
Seems like the ID tag would have been placed on the bike after it was recovered.
