- Can it in fact be put back on the road after having a busted frame?
- Do I have to get a new VIN assigned to the bike with a replaced frame? What does that involve/cost?
- What does inspection on a salvaged bike cost? I've heard it can be upwards of $500?
How cheap is very cheap? if it was in a bad wreck and the frame was twisted is this some guy who got it at an auction or something?

What year is it? A buddy of mine got a 2005 last year for $2700.00 and it was in great shape.
