Hi everybody, was just wondering if anybody could tell me the first part of the vin/chassis numbers that tells you if its a uk bike, basically i have a 2010 in green and black but my bike as a colour scheme that seems pretty rare in the uk so i wonderin if it is an import or not or if you can tell us the american vin/chassis numbers then i can check them against mine
Thanks guys

As far as I know the vin number doesn't differ between countries depending on where they are sold. The only country ident in it is for the manufacturer country.

Thanks mate i was under the impression the first 4 or 5 letters gave the country code but im probably wrong

The first 3 letters are the manufacturers country code, where it's made. So for all or bikes it will be a japan code.

Ring a kawi dealer and give them your VIN - theyll be able to tell you
