Dodgy engine number thread

[JonW]

I reckon we should have a thread for all the dodgy engine numbers...

This is a classic...



Well the number itself matches the docs and the frame... the font not so much!

(a 5E1 is a 250 btw, I dont spose many UK/EU folk have seen one lol)

Are new Banshee cases blank but with the raised lines or flat?

Link removed to the cases I posted earlier after jackjabba post.

I think your right there, they could be new and stamped, and perfectly legit.

Just alarm bells rung when I know the owner still has this registered as a 347cc, so wouldn’t put a restamp past them also?

I know I’m a bit funny about frame and engine numbers and registering things correctly but that’s just the way I am.
