    I'm going to guess that you'd need to take apart more than half of the Spyder to access the engine id

    Default Here you go..!!

    Inot easy this picture is with the engine out so you will have to take the left side panel maybe more.

    pulling the oil inspection cover you will see the engine sproket and belt so it will be right behind on the engine case below the rear engine mounting bolt...hope it helps...

    Thanks for that, I had to get a new number plate
    , so had to find the engine number, what a mission, still didn't find it with the cover off, even seeing where it is located via the manual.

    Whoever decided to put it there needs a good flogging!

    It's probably the same guy who decided where to put that rear tire valve stem.

    The 1330 engine number isn't as hard to find but you might have the same luck as I did if you remove the Left middle side panel (#1 in the 2009 manual, pg 89) and use a swivel head mechanic's mirror to read your number. You might have to get a rag in there to clean dirt off the engine to read it.

    otherwise be a vulgar brawl.
