Well, first thing I did was call DH! He came home immediately!

Being that he's a General Manager, he had access to use the VIN number and look up the bike in the Harley database at his old place of employment (before we moved in Sept.). It was exactly what he suspected. The bike was sold there. Actually... what he thinks happened is that they wanted to get the bike off the lot since it hadn't been sold. In order to do that, they had to make up a customer... me! (how they got my personal info is beyond me!) He doesn't understand why a title was generated though. The only thing we can think of is that the person in the title department, who just happens to be new, noticed that this bike was sold, and didn't have a title, so she unknowingly made up a title for a non-existant customer.

Of course, DH is going to make sure he's correct on all of this... but if for some reason he's wrong and some idiot associate decided to use my info to purchase their own bike, I will definatly be making phone calls, and I WON'T BE NICE!

You ladies all gave me some great advice... cross your fingers that I won't have to use any of it!

Jeesh!!! What a scare this was for me... I was shaking uncontrollably and sure enough as soon as DH walked in the door, I couldn't control the tears either. Hmmm, I think I should automatically get ownership of this damn bike, just for my troubles!

Apparently Eirc's theory was right on the money. Whew!! I'm so glad. However, hehehe, legally I have the right to take the title and show up at the store, and demand posession of the bike!!! The bike is worth, drum roll... over $25,000. Hmmm, we could sure use that money! Obviously I won't take advantage of their error, but I find it kind of humorous!! You could say, I have them by the ba!!s on this one!

The plan is for me to sign the title over and they will take care of the error. What a terrible mistake they've made. They should be thanking their lucky stars that it was me that was on the receiving end of this and not someone who was more than willing to take advantage of the situation!
