TRX450R Problem

[metalmulisha666]

ok i bought a trx450r engine off a guy and it was a good deal! but then when i brought it home i tried looking for the serial number and couldnt find it, iam not familiar with trx's its the first one im gunna have cuz i bought a frame and an engine, im building one piece by piece. anyways ya so i cant find the serial number, and each time i ask someone where it is, they jump down my throat and think that im trying to steal a quad ur sumthin :( could it be covered, cuz theres a bunch of dirt on it, or could it be grinded off, i dunno where to look, can someone tell me which part to look on ??

There should be a plate stamp with a # on it located under the shift shaft..
