Default salvage title= street title ? in va

alright I picked up my 01 929 yesterday and I get all the way down there and he hands me a piece of paper that is a michigan scrap title. what can I do about this? I think I can go to the dmv and have them check it out and then then get them to stamp a new vin? but I was wondering has anyone on here done this in va yet?
hte frame seems to be straight and it rides straight so would you please help me! and I have searched goggle but Im not very good with computers.

You did know that it had a salvage title before you went down there to buy it correct?

most states will want a reinspection of some sort. for what you paid, its still a good deal.

You didn't ask if it was a clear title beforehand?

Next time ask about the title before you buy a bike. That is very important!
Does the "scrap" title even look real?
