Hi
Im looking at buying a 2nd hand YZ250, but I want to be sure of the year.
All the VIN decoding website cannot determine the year. Can anybody help?
JYA CG23C 0 0 0 007255
Thanks
Sorry I can't see your location because I'm posting from my phone. I'm going to guess you aren't in North America with that VIN.
The 10th digit on a North American vehicle will not have a o in it or a 0 (zero) in it to represent the year. 2000 model year is a Y and 2010 is A. The numbers were only used from 2001 to 2009 and went back to letters starting in 2010.
There is no o's or i's used in vin numbers because it is to easy to confuse with 0 or 1 which are used.
Apologies for the poor pic quality.

I could be wrong...
Edit: the more I think about it, I seem to remember Yamaha does some funny things with VIN's sometimes. Sounds like a dealer call.
