| Oh good. When I read the title I thought you were contemplating taking your engine out to dinner and a movie. Dan |

| Engine dating? Wasn't that what "Dancing With Wolves" was about? Enough! Back to the OP question. I did a web search on Honda motorcycle engine number and it seems the first five characters on the engine ID (located on left engine case ) are what you need (XX##E) As I understood it , the Number before the E is the year. I didn't do a check on this, but maybe it will hwlp you get started. I would start by writing down the ID off your engine and then go to the web. I hope this is of some help. If not, ask those engines you.ve been dating. |
