GSXR Frame without VIN? Engine serial # question

So there's a local guy who's been parting out an 09 GSXR 750 that threw a chain and cracked the case. He claims it's a track frame without a VIN, I kinda figured it was a stolen bike and they removed the VIN. Well I go and check it out and sure enough it doesn't have a VIN plate on the left side and there's not one on the frame neck either. There's no signs of there ever being one there and it doesn't look like the area has been tampered with, the powder coating looks like it's from the factory. The only number that's on the bike is the engine serial which is R745-104743 and I searched online and nothing came up about it. Does anyone have the ability to run that engine number through a database to find out if it's stolen?

 

No title or MSO? It will be hard for you to sell down the road for sure. Engine numbers are not usually registered. They can be listed on a title, but not always. The replacement frame was not correctly handled.

I think you can run engine numbers too.

 

what I know for sure is that replacement frames ( K5/6 recall ) did not have vin#s they were blank and what the dealers did is stamp the licence plate # instead.

 

Any number can be run, if somebody took the time to enter it into a database. Iirc, almost every major part on a car is etched with a number, usually the vin.

 

Not much else he can do to verify if it's legit or not.

 

I ran the engine number thru VIN check and it stated it's not ID as a thief. The guy is selling it cheap because he's moving and has to be out of his house by tomorrow.

 

Is there a way to verify the year by the eng number? I know the R is a 750 but not sure about the year
