Unhappy
Some woman rear-ended me on my custom bike. the frame is twisted, I need to find out who makes it and the average cost. the VIN is 9 characters long starting with TEX





sad day but i was lucky to come out of this with minimum issues.

VINs are 17 characters long.

Pictures? Tons of trolls come through here with first posts begging for attention. Best for you to show us the damaged bike to set the collective hive mind at ease. You'll get a lot more help that way.

Tons of after market frames out there. Shouldn't be hard to find it or even a better one. Now is the time to build that derake chopper.

Are you sure the frame is bent? For a VIN check the cross brace under the engine. I have a custom chrome frame and that's where they stamped it.

You have a Texas state applied VIN. In California, your bike would be branded as "SPCNS"..for special construction.
But since you were rear-ended, let the insurance from the other driver make you and the bike whole again.

The bike is awfully rusty like it's been laying around awhile. When did the crash actually happen?
