Hey Will

Don't know where you got the number from but FYI, my V5 from the DVLA has a typo on the frame number vs what's actually on the frame itself..

I'd say yours is a 4UN, so EU model and judging by the low number, a very early model.. 96 or prob 95 built. Only weakness on early model was weaker valves but nothing that can't be sorted out. If it runs, is at the price is right price/matches it's condition, go for it.

Here's the thread on number which I think is being referred to: http://www.trx850.com/phpBB_forum/viewt ... er#p100150
