so i just got a 86 variant SLE frame.
unfortunately the vin tag on the head tube was removed.
as many of you know, in 1981 all VIN numbers were standardized to contain 17 digits. I have no reason to believe this frame is stolen, so not to worry.
If anybody with a 1984-1986 variant SL, SLE whatever could post the prefix of their vin numbers so I can try to piece together the correct VIN number and get this thing registered.
my 88 variant sport is VTHMD3099JSXXXXXX
much appreciated.
bump for friday
I'll check later today. feel free to give me a call after 1pm
My 1980 SL is V41563.
thanks man. unfortunately before 1981 VIN numbers werent required to be 17 digits. so that wont work for me. thanks anyway. really nice SL by the way.
I had the same problem Vic, buy my insurance agent just added a bunch of one's at the end of my VIN to make 17 digits, not sure how legit that was, but it got me registered...
VIN = ZTHM1T020ES005048
DOM = 11-84
Model = SLE
mileage = 114.5
That is an odd number though as most Derbis have the first 3 digits of the vin (WMI number) as VTH which corresponds to the following info:
Manufacturer Name NACIONAL MOTOR S.A. dba DERBI
WMI VTH
Address C/BARCELONA, 19
08107 MARTORELLES (BARCELONA)
BARCELONA,
Product Type MOTORCYCLE
Model MOPED
A search of ZTH came back as nothing.

why not just put another vin plate on there? From like a puch or something.
thanks chris, thats exactly what i needed!
My vin was under the seat of all places, but mine was not a U.S. market bike, somebody bought it while stationed in Spain.
