I found a scooter I would really, really like to get (08 Honda Ruckus, something cheap on gas really) but here is my problem. The guy I want to buy it from does not have the title or the keys, however he does have a bill of sale from the original owner and is willing to offer me a bill of sale as well, but I really want to find out if this thing is stolen. He sent me pictures of the VIN but since we don't have to register a motorized vehicle under 50cc in the state of AR, I can't call the DMV and see if it was ever reported stolen. Would calling the local police departments in the surronding counties be my only option?
