he take an actual title paper, uses a chemical to remove the printed ink (literally washing the ink off), and reprints new text onto it with a clean vin number.

Don't they verify numbers when doing safety inspections?

In NH the vehicle would eventually, within 30 days of registration, be discovered.

i think you mean during registration?

I have registered dirtbikes (whose VIN isnt part of the DMV database) without issue, im guessing the same thing would happen during registration of the fake VIN.

That or they get a VIN from an older bike and just copy it over.

Nope...during inspection. In NH a vehicle inspection station is required to match the VIN from the reg to the vehicle.

My rear brake light switch didn't work last year.  Figure that was important enough to catch.  Nah.  I passed.

Updates, they know who did it. But cannot find him. Apparently, hes been rebadging VIN numbers on bikes with clean ones that he has titles with. That means that eventually my bike will be on sale on CL somewhere. If hes going to go as far as marking the engine I don't know. that means that I when I find my bike, my VIN will not match on my frame. But it may still match on my engine. Aside from that, I have no way of saying its mine. His vin will be legal, his title will be original since he legit washes the ink off the old title and resells it.

If you have your engine number and your VIN number, just go see any bike that appears on Craigslist over the next month or 3 that matches your bike's description.
If you see your bike, call the cops immediately, and tell them when they arrive that this guy is in possession of a stolen bike, and your engine number is all the proof that you need.

Or, you could just tell the guy the history of what's happened to your bikes while parked on the street, and he will simply give you the bike back, and then call a hazmat team to clean him up.

That seems like such a silly way to do things.
Way easier to buy a bike with a bad engine, but a clean title, and simply swap the frame on the bike.
Then it's way more legal.

I bought a Hawk GT from the NYC Police Impound Auction way back in '03.
The NYPD Auction genius' screwed up the VIN on the paperwork, so I couldn't register the bike properly.
So I bought a frame with a clean title from someone in Minnesota, and swapped the frame onto my bike, and registered that perfectly fine.
