K0 CORRECT DATE OF MANUFACTURE

(1/2) > >>

StevieWonder:
Can anyone please help me identify when my bike was manufactured. Unfortunately the VIN plate on the steering head has been removed - maybe for respray, It's a K0 with frame number 10369**. I think it would be around May 1970. Perhaps there is a listing of frame numbers and dates out there or I'd be very grateful, if someone with a similar frame number and intact VIN would advise.

JamesH:
1036774 is an 05/70 bike.
1037279 is an 05/70 bike.

I’d say yours is def an 05/70 bike

Nurse Julie:
James, do USA bikes have a VIN plate and have the VIN stamped into the headstock?

steff750:
 ;) hi im not sure that you can get the exact date without the vin plate not even HONDA can supply you with that sort of  info as they was making 1500 cb750s a month ? perhaps the previous owner might still have some paperwork with the date
 do you have a log book if not you could try and get a dating certificate off the VJMC there is a charge but the DVLA normally accepts their findings but if the bike is already registered then you can use the date off the logbook

Julie - yes, stamped VIN on LHS of headstock (same as Uk units) but have the riveted VIN tag on RHS of headstock...

Ah yes, I remember now. It is handy that the USA bikes have the manufacture date on the VIN.
