So here's the dilemma:
Buddy of mine bought a bike, I don't know like Novemberish? Let it sit for a while before tidying it up getting it ready to ride for the spring. We put her together, and send out xferable reg to VT (Bike had no title). Apparently the other day cops show up at his house asking for the bike and him, assuming because it's stolen. I never had issues with this because I've always ran VIN before purchasing a bike, but I guess he didn't check, and just got a Bill of Sale from the guy at most. What happens now? Bike has to be impounded is there any way he can do anything at all to get plates, etc.? Just never had to cross this bridge personally, wondering if anyone else has gone through similar situations. Is all hope lost? PS he has on record text messages between him and buyer, and was under no impression said motorcycle was "hot." Any advice would help, thanks in advanced.
