Where was my CBR from??
 

Hi all,
A while ago I came accross a website where it listed all the Honda VIN ranges and the country they are applicable to.
I spent all day yesterday trying to find it again and I can't!!!!

I've a cbr1000FH (SC21) and, apart from having a KPH speedo, the log book states it was first registered overseas and I'd like to know where this was?

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers

Would need your engine/frame number
If the speedo's in KPH, either has to be europe or Mexico...............
Mexico didn't import any mark 2 models.
I'll try to look it up if you give me the details above........

This one might be a little easier to read .... :icon_wink:
Sorry Pete , my eyes are not that good mate ...LOL

Thanks very much - thats the details i remember seeing.

Weird though - my V5 (log book) definately states my bike was registered overseas but looking at the chart it should have been a UK bike?
Engine VIN sc21e-2017014
Chassis VIN sc21-2012405

Could be an error by the DVLA i guess.....would'nt be the first time!!

Thanks again.

May have had a speedo transplant at some time. Is your speedo Just in K's or does it have MPH too ?

So there was no 92 model? Didn't know that. Did they just extend the 91 and then bring out the revised 93 early?

Yup s'far as I know.............
All the so-called 92's are just 91 overstock from dealers...............

Shadow - no its just in Kmph.
I guess it could have had a speedo change at some point....i'll dig a bit deeper and see if i can find any other indications.

Thanks for your help guys.

Just want to say a BIG thanks for everyone on this Forum, i dont post much but often come on here for a read. Bike is for sale now as i really don't get the time to ride her much now days. Sad excuse I know, but true and I'd rather let someone else get the enjoyment from her!

Ride safe!

Sure they made it in 92 as well! Mine's an F-N model, the frame VIN speaks for itself: SC24-2300806, it should go right where in the manual says "not available".
Frame labels are in english, french and german, and on the right hand of the frame, it has this one:

So, my '92 came from France, that's for sure? :)

mine was apparently from the uk...and it was imported from italy..interesting.
