Loking for Date of Manufacture / Build Date for '75 z1 with NO VIN Sticker

#1 PostAuthor: Cwiseguy » Wed Mar 14, 2018 12:28 pm

I have a question: I have a '75 z1. VIN is Z1F-62941. Frame is missing the sticker. I want to put a new sticker on. I have NO build date. What might be the build date for this VIN? Some say for this VIN it might be 9/74 or 12/74 or 1/75 or 3/75?

Hi

as A1John mentioned above: november 1974 so it's a Z1B!
If it's more or less original you can take a look on top of the swingarm,near the grease nipple, there should be 410 or 411 and on the back side of the metal strip that connects the rear brake to the swing arm the same number.
Show us some pictures of your bike during your introduction, that's the way to do it, don't be shy or afraid, we won't eat you!

If it was a European or UK bike it wouldn’t originally have had a build date sticker...
