I have a Maxfine DirtBike 200-4-N that I am having problems finding any info. on. I need to file for a duplicate title {lost}, and can not even determine what year it was manufactured. Does anyone know how to decipher the VIN# to find the date of manufacture? I am also looking for some replacement parts for the motorcycle and would appreciate it if someone could direct me to a place to order them. I beleive the bike is a 2005 or 2006, from the research that I have done so far, but no way to confirm. Any info. on the motorcycle would be appreciated.

I have contacted New York State Department Of Motor Vehicles and this is their answer.

Scooters, Go-Karts, Mini-Bikes, Mopeds, ATVs and Other Special Vehicles
Question
Do I need to register a motorized scooter, a go-kart, a mini-bike, a dirt bike, a motor-assisted bicycle, a moped, or an ATV?
Answer
Motorized Scooters, Go-Karts, Mini-Bikes, Dirt Bikes and Motor-assisted Bicycles
You cannot register any of these motorized devices in NYS. You cannot operate these devices on sidewalks, public streets or highways in NYS. These devices are classified as motor vehicles, but the devices do not have the correct equipment or design to operate on roadways. If you operate an unregistered motor vehicle on a street or a highway in NYS, law enforcement officials can arrest you and give you a ticket for the violation of several traffic laws. The DMV web site has more information about motorized devices.
Mopeds
You cannot register or legally operate a limited-use motorcycle (moped) in NYS unless the DMV certifies the device for registration and operation. The DMV web site has more information about Mopeds.
All-Terrain Vehicles (ATVs)
You cannot register an ATV unless it complies with the definition of an ATV in the DMV brochure, ""ATVs - Information for Drivers and Owners."

Hope this helps.
SOURCE: need to find out year of manufacture of my yamaha rd400
Hi ...... The reason it's on a Q plate is that the DVLA are unsure of manufacturing year, it's been put together later out of 'spare' parts or it's been an insurance write-off that has been repaired with a high percentage of replacement parts or a different frame. You'll be able to find out from YAMAHA the age of the frame & engine with the V5 showing you only the date of registration. Have you tried the VJMC ? Give them a call with the V5 in front of you, so you can answer any questions.

It's unlikely, despite all the 'reports' of people having keys cut from numbers or dealers looking up the original key cut, etc. Talk to any REAL locksmith, they'll tell you. In the end, if you have any other lock off the bike that you can TAKE into a good lock shop, they can make a key from that lock for likely under $50. Like, an accessory or helmet lock. Taking it to a smith will SAVE you $$$. If you have a smith COME to you, figure $100-300!!!
Sure, some folks have had it done for free, or only $5, or only $10, and the stories go on and on--if you're brother in law is a locksmith, take it to him, or whatever--a real locksmith is a professional who's got to make a living--they charge reasonable rates.
That said and done, I recently had to do something EXACTLY like this, but I'm too cheap to afford the $50 for a smith to do. I bought a blank key for my motorcycle type: $2.
I bought a needle file set from Harbor Freight, on-sale: $1.99
I removed one of my trunk locks (Goldwing, full dress), and figured out how the 5 tumbler lock works, and I filed a key down with tiny files to open this lock. It took 20 minutes, I was patient and methodical. When I went back to my bike to try the key, my new key was smoother than my OLD key. Since the trunk locks don't get as much use as the ignition, my 30 year old ingition lock was a bit sloppy, and the original key, a bit worn. A sharp, cut key from a tight trunk lock worked out NICELY for me.
Maybe I was lucky, maybe you can be too. It's all about what you want to afford, and how much effort you want to put into it. I had a lot more time than money when I did this--it paid off.

Tecumseh has gone out of business. There is a parts supplier who bought up the parts inventory but my last order of a carb took four months to get shipped. Honestly, your best bet is to get a Briggs and Stratton engine then alter the frame mounts to fit the engine. The project will go quickly and you can get parts when needed.
