XJ750J manufactured month and year

Hi everyone,

I need some help trying to figure out what the manufactured month and year for my xj750j.
I am repainting my frame and want to make a new VIN Label.
The old lable have the manufactured month and year torn off.
Was wondering if someone has a bike with the frame# close to mines, I can make an intellegent guess.

My frame# 15R-013655

I have a friend with frame# 15R-000817 with 12/81 as manufactured date.

Please anyone help!
Anyone who step up I can make a VIN Label for them for free.

Thanks in advance.

 

MODEL NAME: XJ750J
STREET NAME: 1982 XJ750 Maxim
MODEL ID CODE: 15R
FRAME ID: 15R
SERIAL NUMBER STARTS AT: 000101
USA MSRP PRICE: $ 2,999.00

That info' is from here http://www.xjbikes.com/forums/index.php?threads/tech-topic-model-id-and-vins.14577/

 

Since it says J you know it's an '82. Any late month from '81 or 'early '82 would suffice.

 

I ran into the same problem, half of my VIN sticker was shredded off and the guys here were able to help since I was not good at deciphering the code. How do you go about making new VIN Labels??

 

Thanks for reply everyone. I guess I make up a month I like best in 1982.

I use a graphic editor like photoshop and print it on a blank vinyle sticker. I just type in what it says and put about the same amount of spaces in between the letters and match up the font style and size as best as I can. Size the graphic to about 4.187" x 1.125" with a border for cutting after the printing is done. Spray some rust-oleum high heat clear coat to help make it last, wait for it to dry and apply the sticker. I'll upload some before and after pics when I get my frame back from powder coating next week.

Old VIN Lable



Test print on paper before printing on the expensive $1 per sheet vinyl.

 

Or you get a new blank reproduction sticker from xj4ever and type in the blanks-----

Just make sure to use a month early enough not to be an '83 model----

 

I was looking around to see how much it was to make a vin lable, found a site called BDesigns, they would reproduce the vin label for around $76. Too much for a peice of sticker. I can print a whole buch myself for that much. Just need a good picture editor program and a printer. Can get a few sheets of blank vinyl sticker for about $10 at the local office depot.

 

Gosh I learn more about Len every day! Tack that on to the list of things I need lol. Good luck with your VIN sir.

 

But, what you learn, it's not always true! Although we do have quite a few reproduction decals available, those VIN decals ain't one of them. Done enuf jail time in my life already

 

Oh, my bad-- I thought I had seen blank ones. Now I gotta figure out where I saw them then. Of course, if I can remember, I guess I'd better not tell then either!! Lol

 

Not sure I really needed to know that...

 

I'm looking for the decals for the side panels of a 1981 XJ750 Seca. Bike is black. Need the red and gold swoosh decals.

 

Hello stelvio996, you would get more replies if you start your own topic with an appropriate title in maybe ' hangout lounge ' rather than in this thread.

 

My 82 750 Maxim has 7808 frame # and a build date of 1/82.
