1971 CB750 - Missing VIN Tag need Month it was made
« on: July 06, 2022, 07:35:53 PM »
I have a 1971 CB750 with a missing VIN tag and want to have a new tag made for it.  I need to figure out the month it was manufactured.  If you have a number close to this number, please let me know what month is on the tag.  I am guessing the bike was made in about June of 1971.  My VIN number is:  CB750-1098683
Thanks, Cedric

Thanks for the quick response.  How did you determine this?

Have you looked in the registry  section?

Thanks, I looked at the registry but it didn't help me.  I really need two people, one with a number slightly higher than mine and one that is slightly lower than mine to let me know what month their bike was manufactured.  This would positively let me know what month mine was manufactured.  Thanks in advance.

Thanks JPDevol.  That helps me a lot.   Hopefully there will be a few more people that will take the time to look at their plate and give me some more clues.  I found a guy on eBay that makes these plates but I want to be certain of the month before I spend 50.00.

Thanks George, that helps.  Members, please check your 1971 K1 CB750 Vin plate and if you have a number close to 1098683, post the date it was manufactured.  Thanks in advance.
