Hmm, i think they do check the VIN number for the MOT now.

Ducati frame numbers are dot punched on the newer frames, so I think it's a bit harder than getting the right sized punched kit.

Nah 40 grade aluminium oxide paper. :lol::lol:

Can you not explain the suituation to the local Police. They wil then check the frame number to make sure its not stolen and they can then stamp on a new one for you and you then get the log book changed to match.

Won't do much for your second hand value though - bikes with history like that are not easy to shift.

Can you get the number re stamped next to your exhisting one?:puzzled:

Got to be worth looking into?

Wow, that will look like a ringer .... leave it and don't worry.

its simple - just take some good digital pics - before and afterwards - nobody will care after that!

Errr ... the before pics might be a little tricky now?

Unless you have a tricked up Delorian?

:P

I meant of the frame number before its coated/painted - dummy!!!!!

:o

When I got a new frame for my 900ss it came with no frame number whatsever. The Ducati dealer didn't have suitable number stamps so arranged for the local Honda dealer to do it for me. They did a cracking job which looked just like it was meant to be there. I would suggest you get it overstamped by someone who knows what they are doing and has proper stamps for the job. You could try your dealer for a start.
