The whole point of the answer was "Build it how you want, but use the neck from a bike."
This gives you the ability to register it as a modified version of the bike from which you stole the VIN.
Honest? Not totally.
Does it work? 60% of the time, every time.
If it doesn't work, they'll just make him fill out a different set of paperwork and wait literally forever and 4 days for a title application form, then fill that out and have it inspected, have the mechanic sign it, go back through the process again to receive a conditional or bonded registration, blah blah blah blah...
Except in Maine. Just get a hobbyist plate and throw it on, apparently.
Anyway, if you're going to use a bike engine on it, just use the neck from a similar bike somewhere in the design, that'll let you use the title from that bike and save you a lot of hassle.
