I'm out...313XXX frame number and not a Roadster at birth (HiRider).

It would be interesting to see a photo of that number if it's stamped on the actual headstock (with the last two or three numbers blanked out)

Does it follow the usual format of *850*313xxx* where (*) is the NVT three lines in a circle stamp?
'F' or 'no F'?

For 1973, 1974 and early 1975 the frame and plate numbers don't match.

Why is this of interest to you?
 


333988 is an 850 Mk3 (Edit: A late Mk3) and which is what I said: "For 1973, 1974 and early 1975 the frame and plate numbers don't match." so no argument there, my 850 Mk3 has matching frame and plate numbers but Staytite was referring to his 1974 model having non-matching numbers.

Thank you, I asked because you said the frame number was 313xxx, which it obviously isn't.
Ya, I guess I should have clarified the plate number, which matches engine and gearbox casing numbers on my bike. Hadn't really noted the headtube stamping was different until now....Does it tell us anything relevant to bike's providence?
 
That would scare me to have one of those. That's just me though.
 
A MKII of friend of mine is 33595X and the VIN is marked 77 (the year)???
Ciao.
Piero
