VIN codes
I found the following on line and wonder if anyone knows about Bimota VIN codes and what they mean or have they also followed along?
A Sample VIN to Decode
Let's take a look at a sample VIN. Vehicles manufactured before 1981 might have fewer characters than today′s standard 17-character VIN.
2 H 2 G P 1 2 P X Y 2 2 0 3 2 4 1
2: The country in which the vehicle was manufactured
H: The manufacturer
2: The make
G-P-1-2-P: Identifies unique characteristics, such as the engine or
body style
X: The check digit, which helps to identify VIN fraud
Y: The model year
2: The assembly location
2-0-3-2-4-1: The production sequence number, indicating the exact point at which the vehicle came off the assembly line
To help you further break down the codes, we have provided a list of model-year codes, as well as a list of the country of origin codes.
