Hi,
Here's my second stupid newbie question.
Since I started lurking, wow 2 1/2 years ago! I've noticed dozens of posts
about this tool. What is the need to remove the VIN plate? The only thing I
can think of is prepping to paint/powder coat the frame. Some posts imply
replacing it with something other than the original VIN plate? On my TLC
list, when this topic comes up, people start crossing their fingers to ward
off this evil subject. For that list, VIN plates are never, ever touched,
tampered with. Is there a difference in VIN plate tinkering between
motorcycles and cars/trucks?
Very curious.
Thanks, I'll go back to lurking now.
