Title: HONDA TL125 70s Trial-Help needed to identify age
Post by: claytonb on September 16, 2008, 02:07:47 PM

Hi all,
I recently put my hands on a Honda TL125 which has never been registered so no documents exsist. I would like to gather as much info as I can on it. I would like to find out its age amongst other things.

The frame number is Tl125S-1018925. Can ay one help or know where I can determine its age?

Thanks!

Hi L.A.B,

Thank you for the info, you pointed out 2 good sites. I checked the sites out and concluded its a 1976. Its the 'S' that makes all the difference. The 1973 frame number starts only with TL125 till 1975.

Thanks a lot without you I couldnt find this out.  ;)

Clayton

Yes, - sorry, I missed the 'S'. So 1976 it is.
