Headache's correct...10th digit should be a letter
F=85
G=86
H=87
J=88 (no i used)
K=89
L=90
M=91
N=92

Something is fishy with that. Is it an lt250R? Or Zilla? Or 250s? 92 was the last year of the Suzuki R's.

Congrats on having a first year racer!! Now, look further into the bin, and figure out what number off the line it was. A guy on QRHQ has the first Zilla released. His vin starts with 00023, the first 22 were destroyed by Suzuki, number 23 was factory chromed, then released to a factory backed racer (can't remember the name)
