So the VIN on these bikes is only 9 digits right? I went and tried to register it at my AAA office and the girl didn't beleive me I guess. So I went to my local Yamaha dealer and he confirmed that back they they had 9 digit VIN numbers.

Read, learn, memorize, or, at least, print out the important parts that apply to your bike and you can really impress the girls at the AAA offcie.......

I had a similar problem with an XJ650J I got sans title. The VIN sticker was missing and the stamping on the head tube does not have all 17 digits. It does not contain the information about manufacturer, country etc.

I used the info from the steering tube, and filled in the rest from the VIN on my titled XJ650J and headed up to the secretary of state with my 17 character VIN. The nice clerk informed me the check digit was wrong. "DOH!"

Back to the computer with my manufactured VIN and a VIN decoding web site trying different check digits until I didn't get an error.

Back to the secretary of state with my revised VIN where I was issued a title, no problem.

So, the point of my story is you need someone to provide you with a good VIN for your model, you plug in your serial number from the head tube, hit the web to calculate the check digit and you will have the VIN for your motorcycle.

So, you need to start a new thread asking for an accommodating XJ750J owner to provide the first 12 characters of a valid VIN.
