How many M2 were rolled off the assembly line? I have only seen two others on the road in the past three years and I'm only 10 miles from the home base in East Troy WI. | ||
| Court |
8,803 | ||
| Jim2 |
How many haven't been chopped for the engine? | ||
| Court |
Got me there . . . . | ||

my first two buells were the remains of two chopper donor bikes i put back together as BUELLs the first one i used a 1998 sportster motor with thunderstorm upper end ported and 536 cams then recovered a regular buell motor that i changed to a stage 3 90" with the 575 cams .. i then bought a 2006 xb12ss then a 20002 cyclone and then after black October i bought a 1125cr  | ||

My M2 was number 40 | ||

Is there anyway to check which number bike you have? | ||
| Tripp |
it's the last digits of the vin | ||

Sign my 1997 M2 up for #3300733 (Message edited by 4DWUDS on January 06, 2010) | ||
| Jim2 |
Mine is #0488 | ||
| Daveswan |
#1911 - must have gotten some of the bugs out by now?  | ||
| Buell_bert |
I wonder. Look in the FSM and it is the last 6 Digits. It is quite confusing. | ||
| Jim2 |
Yeah, the numbers Rex, 4dwuds, Daveswan, and myself have given don't make sense when you look at the year of our M2's. 4dwuds is listed as a '97 cyclone and mine is a '00. Rex's is also a '97. Confusing to me. | ||
| Guell |
that would make mine number 0220 then cool | ||
| 4dwuds |
Yep, the logical progression of numbers does not make sense with the years produced. There must be a trick to figuring out the vin numbering system and whose was made first or last. | ||
| Tripp |
it's # ____ of that model year.... if anybody has a parts book for their bike it breaks down the vin on the second page: mz is the manuf. code (buell) ks is the model code (m2) i think it's ls for m2l 11 is the engine code (56 for cali.) j is the hp code (91 at the crank) x is the model year (1999) 0 1 2 for 2000 etc. and the last digits are the sequential code 300001 would be the first bike of the model year unless it's a california model it would be 320001 etc. | ||
| Buell_bert |
So it is for the model year then the last 6 digits tell how many that year? OK then my 01 M2L is 325077. It has to be all the different models and not just the M2's. My # would be 25,077. 1 answer equals more questions. | ||
| 4dwuds |
I was with ya until we got to the HP code, mine is a H And I have a extra letter after that. 4MZKS11H9V. Now I am confused | ||
| Tripp |
lol opened up a can o worms did i? i'll see if i can scan the page from the parts book for you guys! | ||
| Tripp |
bert, you have number 77 of the 2001 m2l run. | ||
| Tripp |
here's a cool tool, speaking of vin#s http://www.motoverse.com/tools/vin/buell.asp | ||
| Tripp |
here you go, check this out, explains it much better than me! http://www.buell.com/om/99474-09Y_en/file-2.asp | ||
| Tripp |
doh, those are for xb's but you get the idea! | ||
| Cyc02 |
Less than 10,000 made from 1998 - 2002. My last 5 VIN digits are #00465 for 2002, manufactured in March. | ||
| Maddanthony_59 |
My last 5 are 25300, '01 M2L... |
