Ways To Tell How Old Your Rev 3 Is?

[benwall]

HI

what are the ways to tell what year your rev3 is?

I brought mine as a 2007 but im not sure what year it is, i have a feeling it may be a 2008 as the tank decals match, but im not sure as the 2008 has part black wheels and mine have been fully powder coated black, and i have a 2007 mudgaurd. To be honest i do suspect it of being older than a 2007 as it is not in as good condition as most of them of that age.

Can you tell by the frame number or something else?

Thanks

Ben

One change that is visual on the 07-08 models is the tank/frame is slimmer than 00-06 models, plus it has a bolt on cover on the tank unlike ealier models.

What carb do you have? Also a bike can be almost ruined in a few months time, so the condition really is nothing to do with the year.

ok so i have checked it out with the database at beta and it says it is a 2007 270 frame but i brought my bike as a 250 and when i changed the pistion rings i put 250 rings on it so im sure the engine is a 250, were can i find the engine number to check it matches up with the frame number?

so might my bike be butcherd?
