Yes it is chuckie! i wont touch anything without a title. A friend of mine had his 250r honda stolen about 4 yrs ago. he had the title. Last month as i am on craigslist i seen the bike for sale. I called my buddy and told him, he called the cops had to re-file the paperwork. He went with the cop and got the bike back. I love titles!! if he wouldnt have had a title he could'nt of done anything.
