[Jonesy :-)]

Between Eddy and Christians numbers that pretty well establishes mine as 3/81 build
Thanks fellas

[Christian Raith]

721 - 9/81
104 - 2/81
299 - 3/81
553 - 7/81
999 - 1/83

[steptoe]

mine is 740,,, 9/81

[Jonesy :-)]

So, 5N5 ***281 could also be 3/81 thanks Eddy
Anyone else got some RH frame numbers and dates?

[XSIIE]

Paul,

*****489 - 6/81
*****566 - 7/81
*****365 - 3/81

Let the triangulation begin

[Jonesy :-)]

Yep, that could work too

[Christian Raith]

Sounds like a plan, My frame number is in the original post

Ring Yamaha Australia?? Just a thought

Sooooo......it would seem an approximate way to get a near enough month / year for the frame ...would be for all rh owners to list their numbers to see where yours falls inbetween.
You did say you had  number stamped into the frame ?

[XSIIE]

Paul, you will now need to change the naming convention from problem child tp ReHabilitated

[Jonesy :-)]

Jeff, thanks, could have potential if I get knocked back
Yeah Eddy thats what I've been told, and the club I'm in doesnt think it will be a problem, would still be good to have the build date info if your list can do it.

[XSIIE]

It was on club plates prior to you getting it, so it shouldn't be a problem.

Ok....here s something that might tickle your fancy....there is a service that will reproduce a vin tag if you can provide and show a pic of the old damaged one...or in your case ...maybe a pic of that stamped number.

Jeff, yes, I do but it wont match the number stamped into the frame.
Eddy thanks, will be interesting to see what you come up with

[XSIIE]

I have the list. Will need to get on my computer next Friday
