If you have a Yamaha engine that has been bought in from America or Europe direct the parts will still be the same but your model and year model code will be different.


For the Yamaha motor decoder, you will need only the VIN code and nothing more. Take a look at the left part of the steering tube to find the printed card with the code and some additional information.Here you will see a shorter code for the models produced prior to 1982 or the 17-characters code for the models produced after 1981 and later. The right part of the head pipe or the steering tube (different names for one and the same part).

Let's take a closer look at the locations of the VIN on your bike. If you see that such a code doesn't exist, don't buy this bike even if the price is too low. If you see any scratches or deformations, use the Yamaha motorcycle VIN decoder to check whether this number is genuine. The VIN code is placed on non-removable parts of Yamaha bikes.
