What year is my 675?

Winter · 01-05-13, 02:54

buying a replacement screen (someone damaged it) .
I'm looking at the zero gravity corsa.

Anyway I need to know what year my bike is ( sounds bad)

But I bought a demonstrator, Im not sure exactly what year it is.

I'm pretty certain its the 09 model, but it could be an 08 first registered in 09.
SMTTMD10669393142 is my VIN - can you tell from that?

Cheers

If I had to guess, based on my VIN, I'm pretty sure you're a true '09.

The snorkel grills are fairly obviously different between the two model years. Go look up a few pictures on google, and see which yours looks more like.

Thanks for that bit of info!

Picture search as you suggest, confirm 09 year.

Cheers, I didn't want to order the wrong screen!

Not knowing the year isn't too bad, i used to work in an auto parts store and you'd be surprised how many people don't know what kind of car they drive every day

Easy. Look at your headlights/bodywork. If it looks like this:

You want the 06-08 windscreen.

If it looks like this:

You want the 09-12 windscreen.
