They ran the VIN. Came back as not in the system, only expected that. The CHP had the bike in their possession for an hour doing the inspection, and assigning it a new ID.

Did this in 2002 I think?

A lot of information out there is put out there by people who have no clue, kind of like the emails people forward on about how you can get 1200 AAA batteries by taking apart a car battery.

Again, don't try to pull one over on your local DMV, or local police. Tell them the truth, and you would be surprised what you can do. Oh and read up on the laws in your state as well as the process for registering a vehicle with no title (you can generally find this on your states DMV website).

Oh and one other tip? Deal with the DMV people with respect. You would be surprised just how helpful they are when you are nice to them you go in there with attitude and you may find yourself with a flagged record in their systems.
