What model of cb500

<< < (2/3) > >>

Mozza:
The numbers march the ones in the v5 but it doesn't tell you the exact model- the v5 also states the colour is green but it did have the gold almost metalflake looking paint under it before I took it back to bare metal.

Bryanj:
New frames come unumbered and have the original re-stamped into them, frame numbers starting 10 ran untill 11/71 then the 20 started in 12/71.

Is this declared as an initial used overseas model I.E. an "Import" on the V5 as it's very common to find a US model with a later engine.

As long as all the numbers tally with the V5 just enjoy it, there are very few modifications during the run of 500 engines(mostly in the first 6 months) and frames so parts will not be a problem unless you are extremely unlucky

popwud:
My Nreg has engine number 2159..... and frame number 2070.....

WestMids-CB:
not too sure on mine as the engine stamp has the last 3-4 digits missing, I can partially make them out  :(

hey Popwud, you wouldn't happen to be the same guy that was on the 1400.org?

popwud:
Yea HB how ya doin, used to be on there, still going strong with my 14.
