the only place I've ever seen the vins on bikes being looked at that closely was in Sturgis during the rally. Believe a team is sent there each year by the feds to look for stolen bikes/parts. If it was me I'd keep some type of documentation on me to prove the tranny was legit. I like the idea of having the numbers run by someone and keeping the paperwork on that available if there's ever a problem.

Although I have never personally worked Sturgis I have had several relatives and friends that have and still do work as LEO's at Sturgis each year. They do check frame numbers and VINs against paperwork. Never engine and transmission numbers.

Things must be different where you are man! It was a legitimate sale and you have a receipt from ebay, not like a parking lot sale. Unless the seller finds a necessity to report it stolen, no heat. Your tranny was wore out and you replaced it. Just relax and enjoy it, and put another 100 mi on that! The guy you bought the tranny from has the same non matching numbers now also, so technically has the same issue as you.

Why do you feel the part is stolen?

I just wonder where they put up all those cops they bring into Sturgis every year. They are 5 or six deep at every intersection trying to harass and intimidate everyone. They must all stay in a big *** hen house!

If the tranny shifts as smooth as you say, you might be going to the big house for exceeding the posted speed a little too often.....
