Templar VIN numbers don't start with LI they start with L1 the number 1.
I went out in my cold garage to go through my workbench for my paperwork, and there is L, the number 1 and then the rest of the VIN is all alphanumeric (numbers and letters not including any Q's or I's in it) and 17 digits long. Edit: the MSO photo above is harder to read in the photograph, the Bill of Sale shows L and number 1 after it.

Here I scanned my MSO in, clearly it is a Serif Font number 1, the same exact print as both 1's in the date above.

Thats definitely not a valid VIN number. I would contact PowerSportsMax. The other issue will be the VIN is also engraved on the bike so any updated MCO won't help unless they match.
Edit: Added the pattern I have below. All models should match the starting sequence. If not, it might indicate the model of bike you have is different or some funny business with VINs is going on.

Here is the VIN decoder template:
Based on that all of us should have the same starting sequence for the exact same model of bike built the exact same year. If we are all different then something funny is going on. L1 U GCNLB 4 N A XXXXXX Where the X's are the actual serial numbers. N being 1992/2022/2052 etc. Not adding the security digit decode, those who want to go through the algorithm to see if its valid: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Vehicl...s)/Check_digit Edit: I found an online check digit calculator at NHTSA, I ran my VIN through and the check digit on my VIN is correct: https://vpic.nhtsa.dot.gov/decoder/C...3e1eaxhf000316

Just walked out of the county courthouse here in Mississippi. No problem at all getting my Templar X registered and plated. At $245 it was a little more expensive than I expected. But oh well. Got insurance through State Farm. Full coverage is $8 and change per month. I really hope they get you sorted out JC.

Wish you luck. You might open the doors for others once it's in the system.

Here is the main website, with no underlying long weblink attached.
https://vpic.nhtsa.dot.gov/decoder/ I get this error message when I input either of my Temp X VINs: Error Text: 7 - Manufacturer is not registered with NHTSA for sale or importation in the U.S. for use on U.S roads; Please contact the manufacturer directly for more information |

That is a serious problem. Can you take a photo of the VIN plate with Js instead of Is? I am assuming that it is correct on the VIN plate itself.
I know it is a pain in the neck, but Zora generally makes things happen with photographic evidence. |
