If it's got a plate that matches the frame number then you can put it on hold, there will possibly be someone in the market for a frame with a live rego, much easier (and cheaper) than trying to reregister a dead one.

How much ?...

Gotta find out the market rate,
Suppose that depends on weather I sell with custom oil tank and swingarm/shocks


How dodgy ?

When I sell anyone is quite welcome to run the numbers and give it a good looking over.

Well legally what you have is not a frame with a rego plate. It's a motorcycle missing it's engine and wheels and a few other bits. So as far as the legalistics go that's how you sell it just as if it was a broken down bike.

So "legally" I can't sell it as live rego/ rego on hold frame. - In case some one buys and then slaps a motor/front end wheels and tranny in it and then takes it off de-rego'd?
Do I just hand the plate in to the man?

Then it will have to be fresh registered and complianced and given a new VIN Plate?
What a waste to time for the buyer.
I'm not really understanding so thanks for any help.

It's quite legal to change a motor , front end, wheels or what have you on a bike, so if the plate matches the frame # , for gods sake put it on hold !

Could have a mate keen on a complete frame as a project, 4 speed swingarm don't really tell me what it was ! Any more details ?

4 speed harley big twin frame - 78fx was a bit of a clue


engine swaps are easy just fill in the form at the post office

motor with plate and papers worth a lot more than just a frame by itself

going rate in the uk for a good shovel frame around £400

going rate for a sporty frame £100

going rate for a legitimate harley log book £1000

the value is in the paperwork

But revinning a bike in NZ is around $800 NZD IF its an insurance write off, which includes an engineers report at 2 to 3 hundred notes and 12 months rego, a mate just revinned an fxr including 6 months rego for 300 odd notes !
Don't think this frame is a write off or the papers be dead already soooo,
No idea what this log book you speak of is, but i'd sure as hell give it a miss at 1000 SP !

So the papers being kept alive on the OP's frame is only worth a few extra dollars to him ! Plus the leg work of getting a police clearance (if it aint dodgy, not really an issue)

But new plates on old bikes look shit lol keep the old plates alive i say !

Yeah I put it on hold.
The engine is going in next project.
If I sell it I just thought it would be easier than re-vinning.

Thanks for information.

log book = registration documents

having an old registration to build a custom bike around / legitimise a stolen bike around avoids engineers reports and loads of paper work and safety compliance crap

big plus over here is if registation is pre 73 no road tax as its exempt

I am so pleased bike theives are thought less of around these parts, where we don't have license and regestration checks ! Is this your vehical, because we are the safest place on earth !
Grannies could walk the streets .... no wait i'm having a flashback !
SKEPTICAL !
We can still do this in middle earth, but we need more hobbits who don't need to steal to survive to teach the minority !
