Please help with model year of VIN CB550E2008065
« on: December 26, 2007, 09:26:22 am »
Sorry to ask but I'm at my inlaws and their computer won't allow me to download the manuals to confirm the model year of this VIN #CB550E2008065.

Can anyone help?

Thanks
FJ

Not really.
 The number you gave would appear to be an engine number.  VINs are usually frame numbers.

The number posted looks like a 77 CB550 K engine.
