early canadian model vin?! help!

[racrx451]

So, I'm parting my race bike I bought from Canada as a salvage. It had a VIN sticker but was never stamped. Should it be stamped? It had a VIN sticker but now thats gone too...must've got hot and now its gone. It was there because I've decoded it before. Now what?! I have paperwork and pics on it but now how do I proceed with getting it tagged? Seems the place where the VIN should be stamped is just a smooth piece of aluminum... Help.

anyone have a 2010 that can tell me if their bike is stamped on the frame OT just a sticker for he VIN? Mine is 05/2010.

Yes it does! Thank you. Is the section machined down or showing raw aluminum where it should be stamped?

Don't know, it has the VIN sticker on it. Looks smooth.

Ok. Thanx. I figured out that my vin sticker ripped and the vin is gone... I'll never understand why the Canadian frames aren't stamped! I must've ripped it pulling the race bodywork on and off as its a tight fit. I have all the paperwork and pics of the actual sticker before it was ripped so I need to see if BMW can get me a new sticker. Thanx.
