How do i go about this?I've got a CR500 and i want to put it on the road.Just like the last three i've had the frame number is AWOL(must be a common thing?),engine numbers on it though.How difficult would it be to put this on the road as far as legal paperwork goes?

I would say probably slim if you haven't got a frame number

I put a CR500 on the road a few years back. All it took was an inspection at the local DoT office after putting lights etc. on. They just issued a number and away I went. Pretty sure I had a frame # though. What happened to yours? You can't 'lose' it, so it must have been ground off.

Bit unforgiving on the road...I sold mine after a handful of miles. As all the best junkies say...'I thought I could handle it'.

I think motocross bikes tend to be farted around with a lot more,frame,engine swaps etc.I'll take all the paint of behind the front number board and have a look,i've just had a quick squint down there so far.

i registered my Yam WR450 last year, needed frame number so as to define year of manufacture.

If no number will need to convince them not stolen, poss built from parts and so would end up on a non age related plate Q

I had a KTM 500 MX bike that had been road registered when I bought it, had frame no. year of manufacture etc but it was still a 'Q' plate, although since I didn't register it I don't know the full details.
