RickGM Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Pretty much what the title says. My chassis and engine number start with 2K4 and on the info plate next to the chassis number I have "Model DT175 Type 2K4" with a bit of German as well. I know the bike is an import from details on the V5 but does the 2K4 give any more info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickGM Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 all it means is it's a DT175MX Rick I havent forgot about the bump stopper, just been to busy to investigate further at the mo Thanks for that. I guess with the German on the plate that's where it started out its life. No prob with the bump stopper (I pm'd you earlier but there's no urgency - too bloody cold to be messing about even in the garage) Yip " 1979 at that... V5 says first registered July 80, first reg in UK Sept 2011. '79 build? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Airhead Posted March 11, 2013 Moderator Share Posted March 11, 2013 Yip " 1979 at that... no john, they all have frame and eng numbers beginning 2K4 even the later ones, its the engine/chassis 'number' that denotes the year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handsomejackuk Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 i have got a DT 175 with the prefix 2k4 what does it mean also the engine number is only 300 away would this be the original engine... the engine is 797 and the chassis is 483.. do you think this could be the original engine... seems too close to be a replacement engine ?
