In the UK, we have the DVLA, who keep records of past owners of bikes, cars etc. Upon payment of £5 you can request a list of the past owners and where they lived. needless to say I got mine back and next year, I'm going to revisit all those places the bike was owned starting from the yamaha dealer who happily, is still in exsistence :thumbsup:

Valid point. Drew... You think of all the cool shit I would like to do when I finally get my bike "up to par"... Perhaps when I need a reason to just get out and ride I will ask you :thumbsup:
 
here in the states for 1dollar you can get the last record of ownership. For my bike the last registered owner was a guy 2 hours away in Lincoln, NE. And that was back in 89 the bike was last registered. After a little digging i found the guy and though he is at a different address he is still in lincoln. We will be getting together to get the title transferred over to me here in another month or so.
 
I did a title search on my bike aswell hadn't been registered in ages and the guy I bought it off here didn't have ownership so I went to our MTO. I have to say though you guys in the states have it way cheaper. I think it was almost 20 bucks for a used veichle package here. I found the last reigstered owner of my bike he lives close and agreed to meet me to get a new ownership. I really should do that sooner then later it seems working on it is way more fun then the paper work.
