Dear All

 

Blessings...I'm trying to establish the year model of my DT50. The number stamped on the head stock is 17W-20349.

 

Any assistance will be appreciated.

Hi there wayne, welcome in,

This recent previous post may help.  https://yamahaclub.com/forums/topic/47943-mr/

At the bottom of the page is the link to the 9 number Vin, although to be fair it just confirms your first 3 digits are indeed a DT50.

Generally the number indicates simply that its the number off the production line, but it doesn't tell you the year.

There are some who may argue the first number is a code for the year and the remaining 4 number is the production, however the flaw there is that each model can only have up to 9999 bikes before it ceases production.

As I've said previously , you might want to remove the number and replace it with X's in case some scrote wants to make use of your legit number.
