Yup, you'd have thought so but in his words "ner mate crnt get anything sorry".

Trouble with this sort of thing is this - he could buy one complete Bandit 600, for example, at a police auction with no documentation to verify its identity. From then on he can go out and nick four or five or more similar Bandit 600s and flog the parts from those under the guise of the legit one he bought at auction. As long as he ditches the frames and crankcases from the ones he nicks he can flog bits all day long from as many Bandit 600s as he likes and make out they all came from the one he bought and has a receipt for.

That kinda sucks a bit
