Ok guys I am going to be purchasing a sportster for my ol' lady and it is used.
My question is.. Is there a way I can run the VIN to see if there has been any damage to it or see how many owners its had or anything kind of like a carfax for a harley??

Also its a 1200C and a 2005 Model. Is there anything I should be worried about with this year or model? I want her to get the best I can for the right price.. I am looking around 6k in price

 

CarFax is only a volunteer database and many wrecks are not reported to it so do not put 100% faith in it or any other reporting company.Most of their database comes from a FEW insurance companies,if i wanted to find out if a vehicle was in a wreck I would try the state police or Motor Vehicle Dept were you live as most accidents are reported to them.

 

SplinterMC,
Hey I have an 05 1200CC and no problems with it at all.
I currently have 22000 miles on it and riding it daily. Good
Luck and ride safe!!!!

Memo

 

The google ad in your post was "Check any vehicle vin etc, etc....."

Funny or ironic?

 

You might be able to run the vin through Hd and get something, never tried it myself. The local DMV would probibally be the best bet.
