Previous owner

The CA77 I have restored is obviosly from America but how do I trace who the previous owner was to show them how the bike looks now as it was a disaster when I bought it.

Much harder than the UK.

How did it get to your house?

Who sold it to you? Ask them where they got it. They might have the 'title' which is the Sate-based registration document. If it moves across States it gets re-titled. Unless the new owner likes to keep paperwork then the trail probably goes dead. It's not like here where a bike keeps its original log-book and registration number for ever.

Thanks G-Man it was delivered from Classic Bike imports. But I'll take your suggestion on board and see how far I get but I would imagine not very far.
