    No... But the Manufacturer's Statement of Origin will have that info.
    It's part of the paperwork that you got when you purchased your bike.
    (It essentially contains all of the same information as does your Title to the bike...)

    The label on the swing arm will give you the month and year of manufacture but not the day.

    Curious, Bob, how did you figure out 01/30/14 from 002444? And was this on your paperwork, or on the VIN label?

    It was listed on the M.S.O.

    I'll have to see if I can find a way, to get a copy of it scanned...

    I have a copy of my Certificate of Origin and my build date is 02/25/2015 which is a Wednesday build but don't know how to figure what # build mine is.

    Would the last 6 numbers of the vehicle indentification number be the build number??

    You can't go by the last of the VIN as there are many different models made. Many of you remember the "premier edition" numbering fiasco.

    There are stickers all over your Spyder (under the tupperware) with the "Build Date" on it. That was the date it was built in the factory, not the assembled date at the dealer.

    174 and counting.

    Here's what the stickers look like. As you can see, my "Build Date" is January 27, 2016 at 12:04:41 a.m

    That's the C of O (Certificate of Origin). That's issued from the factory and the original owner gets that to give to the BMV so you can register the bike. If your dealer filed your paperwork with the BMV, you may not have gotten one. But, one was issued for your bike. All new vehicles get one.

    This should be in post 13.

    I guess that it's one of those pieces of paperwork, that can easily be overlooked during the sale.
    Since I'm also the insurance agent for the nit-wit who owns the bike ; I make sure to get copies of everything!

    While digging out my 2014'd M.S.O., I also found the one for my old 2010...
    A couple of things caught my eye.
    1. It was built on a Wednesday...
    (June 9th, 2010: It's six years old today!)
    2. It was only rated at 95. horsepower...





    Do you think that the marketing folks had a hand in some extra "creativity"?

    Guess I gotta start pulling Tupperware off to find mine, just to satisfy my curiosity. Hope the 2013's have them somewhere.
