Hi all, i am a brand new owner of a TT-R. when i first went to the ttr.com site there was a great page explaining what to look out for when buying a used bike, with a piece about how to tell the age of the bike with the number off of the stearing colum, and the associated dates to numbers etc. i went and got the numbers from my new bike and tried to get back on the same very useful site, but, all i can find is the parts page with no link to the FAQ page which i iniatlly found, any ideas?

Just so i'm clear, does that make it a 95?, being asked to pay $2000nz dollars, happy with look of bike on the back of your info/ check list. I also have a fairly sound mechanic looking her over. looking forward to a good summers riding, any tips on things to look out for when riding bike on test run, i am a real novice, but keen!
