    Gee!, maybe you'd be better off to keep on the lookout for one from the same year with really low miles on it Smokey. Things do pop up if you are looking.
    1994 is a fair while ago, it might be shattering to find your old bike now.

    If it were reduced to just a frame and a set of cases I'd still make an offer. Long shot I know, but strange things happen on the internet.

    I will end up with another late 80's or early 90's Softy at some point, the Widey is fine but TC's just don't have the same feel. It does have ABS, and grunt, but that's about it. 

    Smokey, there are sites where you can check a vehicles current rego status by entering the vin number. Looks like they charge a fee though. It also does not state how much info you will get for your money. Eg. Bike is registered to Joe Blow of such and such address.
    Recently checked a 84 Shovels history on a free search site by entering the last rego (number plate) number. It showed past details about the bike. That was here in Tassie, you'd think S.A would have a similar website.
    Otherwise if you know someone who works in a motor registry office or perhaps a cop you could find out if it is still registered and whereabouts.

    A VIN search shows it's not currently registered in Oz. I don't know where old Evos go to die, but I'm guessing it's taking up space under a tarp in a shed somewhere.
