hi,
i'm new to your site even though i've been raping info for a while now since buying a 04 KDX200...
i thought i'd double check the year, but the 10th digit is an H which according to what i've read means it's a 1987?...i don't think that anyone would have gone to the effort to fit all the newer gear into an 87 frame so:
can anyone tell me the year of this VIN?
JKADX200HHA041124

i'm in auckland, new zealand if that helps, and yes, i've double checked the number, although the 4th digit could be a 0 instead of a D, and the last digit is a bit murky too, it could be an A.

thanks.

Hello, and welcome!

Kawi doesn't recognize that vin. In the US, the 10th digit is the year I believe. Your's being an H would be like 1987? lol. Maybe different since yours is an overseas model.

If it's a 95+ KDX200, it really doesn't matter. Nothing changed on that bike except for graphics and paint from 95 to 2006.

thanks, and yeah i shouldn't care...but i kinda do... i'll ask a local kawasaki shop next time i'm around one, but i'm gonna be hoping there's not something dodgy with it?
