Im new to this forum but i already red a lot of interesting posts in here. I just treaded my old ski doo for a yamaha ytm 200. The owner said its a 1983 but im confused i tried to identify the VIN number but with no luck, so maybe one of you can help me. The number is 43M-000124????

nobody want or cant help me :rolleyes:

There are very few people who look in the new members section. There is a vin decoder on here somewhere, I'll look in a but to see if I can find it.

Edit: I looked and the link didn't work. Not sure what's up. Good lock to you though.

I don't see any Yamahas that match that number. I also checked my Yamaha book and there was nothing that matched.
Check the link below. Perhaps you got a 125? That's the closest with 4U3-?????

Where did you get that number from? Maybe that's part of the issue as well.
If you post a picture of the trike someone could help identify it by looking at it.

Vin# are 14 digits long on anything past 1981
i dont think thats a Vin# looks like a Registatin or Engine Number.
it should be stamped into the frame on the steering neck

Mistery solved, i was talking to the yamaha dealer and apparently there went something wrong with the first two numbers, wasnt really sure what he was talking about:D its a 1984 YTM 200L :lol:

Glad you could figure it out those old yamis are a different animal they have a lot of finicky headaches but they run like a Mexican paint job. Solid machine.
