Post subject: | CR125M VIN--Please help identify year |
I know ya'll have seen this 10,000 times--LOL I have a CR125M that has set up for years. The VIN on frame is CR125M-100**11. It is all red, all parts/frame. Not silver green. What year is it, please? The frame numbers say 1974(?) I want to sell on the Swap Meet, So. Central GA. I can post picture of frame number if that is allowed (or frowned on?) Thanks |

the numbers you mentioned are for a 1974 CR125m, which didn't come out in red it was Green and Silver, 1975 came out with silver and Tahitian Red CR125M-2000006., 1976 was the Red Rocket Year Tahitian Red CR125M-3000001 |

Thanks and that confirms what I found. Next step is finding Engine number and going from there..... It belonged to my late Brother-in-law but I don't remember him ever going to the trouble to rebuild into the 'red' machine it is, Thanks again I'll keep doin' my homework. Any thoughts on this are welcome |

If the LH (ignition) end of the crankshaft has a bolt in it and the OEM top shock mounts are just ahead of the rear seat mounts, it's one of the many '74-5 CR125M's repainted all-red to look like the later bikes. Ray |
