Haha, they dont match they are 200 off. I was thinking it was dead on , must have thought i was reading motor but read vin and then frame. Ooops!
I'm Lookig for frame CT70 157688 or motor CT70E 157205 should be red but could have a respray. Stolen bike
There is a member here with exact matching frame and motor numbers. I personally own a 74 with motor 1 digit higher than frame.
Just got my first CT70. It does not have the neck tag so I am trying to determine build month/year. The VIN is CT70-275244, engine is 274943. Based on those it was built probably somewhere between 5/71 to 8/71. I was wondering if anyone had a VIN close to mine so I can try and confirm build month. Thanks Chris
That definitely narrows it down to late 6/71 or early 7/71. Thanks, we'll see if I can get any closer.
I found 2 older ones in another post. 273580 & 273758. Both 6/71 I know it doesn't help pinpoint a date. Yours could have been built on 6/30/71 or 7/1/71.
I agree. I will keep poking around to see if I can find a VIN larger in 6/71 or a VIN smaller in in 7/71 to confirm which month. Thanks
Maybe one day I will find my twin! Frame: CT70H-158183 Engine:CT70HE-158309 Pretty Close, but not as close as some on this thread...
I whish I had a picture of the #'s on the 71 CT70 I sold for a friend this summer it was 9 digits off from being a matching number bike. The closest I've ever seen on a Honda.
I met a guy a Baber's vintage festival last year who said he had a matching # bike when he was overseas in the militay, in the 70s. But he said he's yet to see another matching number honda.
My MR 250 engine is one higher than it's frame,but my 50 must have the record on this board as being 5559 off I have thought the more produced it seems the farther apart the numbers are.
