Harley Softail ???
My brother died and I now have his bike, it seems to be a custom one since the Vin# isn't like a Harley vin. Vin# starts with 4EMRL, anyone have any idea what type of frame it could be???? Harley told me the motor is a 86 from the EBLG number on it.

First, sorry about your brother.
About the VIN. We need pics to really help you out. However, with a number like that Im wondering if its something he custom made and thats the "special vehicle number" that was assigned by the local DMV. Do you have the title and whats it say it is?
Post up some pics of the bike.

Same problem...
I have the same problem with a "Harley" I am looking to buy. My issue is the plate on the side of this 4emrl frame and title, first it's a reconstructed title and the vin from the frame is not on the title. A little worried about this and don't want to proceed with the purchase if the bike isn't legal

Don't walk away, run.... you'll save more time, money, & frustration finding a bike with a good title....
