Written-off bike - re-registered

[Mully]

Different guy selling it though, he may not know it's history. There is no feedback between the old seller and the new seller.

Actually, it could be the same guy. Andrew from Franklin and Andrew from Manukau. Current seller has only been a member since April.....

The plot thickens.

I wonder if they had that rule in place 3 years ago?

some people are just plain dodgy

Topic takes my fancy, having just had to re-vin / register my blackbird ( which I purchased as a write-off).

It was a lesson in patience (which I don't have)

If a bike has been written off, the insurance coy will notate on the file as to the type of damage. If structural, any repairs must be carried out by a certified welder/ repairer ( as mentioned ).

It appears all testing stations are just as tough ( I tried around)

One lesson learnt when replacing parts ( mirrors, fairing blade etc ) is to use the internet, Eagle screens, Australia, were excellent, and a lot cheaper than I could find locally
