I've known of vehicles without a VIN in the distant past but what I'd be wondering is how you would get it mot'd. No/illegible VIN is a mot fail far as I know. ____________________ a.k.a 'Geri'

I was suggesting that what pete indicated was the frame number was in fact the engine number
its fairly obvious that the frame number has been removed from the headstock |

If it comes with a V5C showing the VIN and it ended up in my possession, I'd have no hesitation about stamping the VIN back on it again, either directly or on a plate. I can't think of any possible offence that you'd be committing by putting the real VIN back on the bike.
However, I would assume ongoing questions at MOT time, which I'd probably answer with "Dunno, mate, bought it off the insurer as stolen-recovered, mate, came like that, mate." Even my friendly MOT place does always check the plate on my bikes. Actually, as above, I might even ask them if they could stamp it for me, mate, it's legit and all that, mate.
However, I'd also assume that with 6 active and early eBay bidders that at least 2 of them are going to push it into silly money, so I'd forget about it until 5 minutes before the auction closes and look elsewhere in the meantime. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

I'd do what Roger said myself get the number stamps out. You'd have the paper trail to back you up. ____________________ a.k.a 'Geri'

For the vehicle in question I see no problem with stamping up a strip of metal and gluing it to the headstock, should satisfy MOT purposes. ____________________ a.k.a 'Geri'
