VIN# one the motor not the same as frame!
I just bought a bike salvage title off of a guy who got the bike off of E-bay. I have the bike almost ready for inspection. I was asking what was needed for the inspection. After looking the bike over completely I finally found a number on the motor. However It does not match the number on the frame. Is this common or can I expect that there is something fishy with the motor and frame?

cool! thanks! I'm sorry if that was a stupid question. I'm completely new to the salvage rebuild thing. I have to also admit that I'm rather new to motorcycles in general. I had a nighthawk 650 and then a "86"GSXR 1100 I rode both of these bikes for about a year each. So now I'm doing the rebuild on this 12.
Thanks for the help.
