OK so i went out to see if i could find the vin on my 660...
it has a gytr belly skid on it would that cover the vin up?
because i cant find it lol. its the red powercoated frame if that makes any difference??? didnt wory about it due to nevada dont issue titles anymore when i bought it

 

[rappy'97]

It should be on the left side on the frame. Right in the middle of the tube, right under the engine? That is where mine is at.

 

[deadmans raptor]

isn't there unless
the power coat is covering it

 

[deadmans raptor]

any other ideas i tried to do a blk marker then wipe it off but nothing i need to find out what year it is lol i was told it was an 05 is there any other way to find out

If it has a square tubing sub-frame and shock reservoir that is not mounted on the shock, it is on the frame.

??? i dont understand what you mean by that

That's an 01. 01's had aluminum square tube subframe and separate shock reservioir, fed by hose, to the rear shock.

Does it have a push button and pull clutch or a separate, long lever style parking brake - 05 had lever, all others push button.

on the clutch lever it has the button that you push down and pull the parking break unit and lock it down so i guess it is an 04 now im pissed i thought it was a 05 grrrrrrrr

 

[QuadManiac]

It could be anything from an 01 to 04 - if the rear shock has a piggyback reservior, and the rear subframe is round tubing, at least you know it's not an 01.

Before you get too upset, let's verify my parking brake ID - ANYBODY WITH AN 05? - 05 has a long, separate parking brake lever, not the push button and pull clutch version, right ? ? ?

 

[deadmans raptor]

ya i looked up the 05 pb lever and it is not like that one..... whats the going price on the 04 rappy with my upgrades look below

 

[QuadManiac]

How do you know it's an 04? The only uniquely identifying parts are on 01's and 05's... so, without more info, you only know it's between 02 and 04.

Not trying to rain on your parade, just being honest.

 

[deadmans raptor]

well i know its not an o5 lol or an 01 and its the model red frame with white plastics is there any other way to find out year

 

[jmoore77]

My 2004 is red with white plastics

 

[rappy'97]

I think it is an '04 also. SegKast had an '04, which was had white plastic, and red frame, he also had an '01 subframe, because it is lighter than the '02-'05

 

[deadmans raptor]

i wish my camera was working and i belive the first year for the red frame white plastics were 2004 am i right

 

[QuadManiac]

Just to play devil's advocate - the red/white plastics fit quite well on an 02...

Assuming they are the original plastics on your bike, and 04 was the first year with red/white, you probably have your answer - but without VIN, you'll never be sure.

Of course, you could open the left side case and measure the flywheel diameter - 04-05 used a slightly larger one-way and flywheel. That would be the only way, other than VIN, that could tell you - large flywheel, old style parking brake - 04!

 

[rappy'97]

I just thought about this. It should say "Passed EPA Inspection For 200-" That is what it says on my 350.

 

[deadmans raptor]

Where does it say that

 

[rappy'97]

Right here... I am not sure if the 660 is the same, but here is where mine says it:thumbsup:

 

[deadmans raptor]

ya mine dont say it lol
