Ebay, Altered chassis number?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Bryanj:
Early K3 could have been built in late 72 and that does say 10/72 so add on shipping time and it would be for sale in 73

JamesH:
Looking again I think the VIN plate is just worn / cable damaged, not tampered with..

florence:
looks fine to me, if it was nearer I would be very interested.  Wouldn't take much to get going and would make a nice hack.

JamesH:
Quick look at this again - don't think that's the original cylinder head on there (seems to have the wrong fin reinforcement detail)...

Rob62:
I was just comparing the vin plate to the one on my us model James.... the number on mine is not stamped, just printed like the rest of the plate, the headstock is stamped on the other side as you said... fortunately it matches too  :)

The plate on the ebay bike looks to be stamped although the font looks correct. Did Honda supply two styles of vin plate, printed ones and stamped ones?... Ive no experience of comparing us and uk models mine is the first sohc I’ve owned in 30 odd years and i cant remember what my old 550 had
