Frame Number - ID your bike

A spin off from a previous post by RobB, I have created a forum so we can identify which model ZXR400 you have and to show different variations of colour schemes. Please feel free to post pictures to help others identify their ZXR400's but please keep them to factory std releases.

Seems like a extremely scarce find! Any idea what a mint one is worth?

Get the number from the headstock off the frame.

Ok, here's a dumb question, but where do I find the Frame Number? It's not on my US paperwork -- where can I find it on the actual bike? What/Where is the 'headstock'?

many thanks,

Sig

headstock is the section of frame between the upper & lower fork clamps.may need a flash light to see. the zxr400 was not sold in the US so what type of paper work do you refer to?

Has anybody have an issue that their number was not found?

I checked a few times, re-entered the number, making sure there's no typos ... and still it claims that "Please check your frame number!" ... I take it it was not recognized .... now I am worried ... :-(

So I read about few other people having a difference between frame code and the code returned by the Japanese site.

So I just went for the first lower ZX400K and from all of a sudden the number was right ....

In my case, ZX400L-xxxxxx on a frame is actually model 1991 ZX400-K2 .... does that make any sense? Is that because 1991 was a split year between K and L models?

BTW, I had no clue there was K model to start with ...
