    under belly panel there is a part of the frame with vin number, visable with bely panel on as its designed to be seen.

    fork seals can be expensive to have done, forks are most likely leaking badly or siezed solid, solid forks in this weather are dangerous, avoid. COmmon.

    typhoon electrics usually play up too. throttles are sticky and brakes are usually bad.
