    Help in RI registering a salvaged title bike

    So I bought a 2007 triumph speed triple for a price I just couldn't say no to. It has a salvaged title do to the owner I bought it from low siding on the street with it. The damage was just cosmetic (scuff on the tail, the tank, the belly pan, and fender) no damage to the frame, suspension, lights, wheels, brakes,etc. So I have been told by the owner I have to have a RI inspector "sign" off on it before I can register it. Anyone have any insight or any RI motorcycle inspectors that can help me out? I know I should have done the research before but this just came up out of nowhere and I'm not going to say the price but it cost me less then most crappy bikes I have bought in the past that were 20+ years older hahaha. Thanks in advance for any help at all.

    All I can say is good luck. Salvage inspection in MA can be a nightmare.
