How to define year of manufactoring from frame number

Hi Guys,

First of all: let me apologize that this is in English (I don´t understand one word Dutch).

I just bought myself a PF50 R here i Denmark which is becoming a full restoration this Winter. I know that it has been imported to Denmark via the "WAR" code. My question is: can we figure out the year of build from the frame number? I´m pretty sure the number/code varies from one country to another, but maybe you guys can tell me something useful? The frame number is:
Line 1: WAR   L
Line 2: PF50-AT76376X
OR Line 2: PF50-A176376X

The line is a bit rusty, that´s why I can´t tell wether it´s a "T" or a "1"

I hope to hear from you!

Best regards, Bjarke

Hi Bjarke,

If you could put some pictures of the bike here it is easier to determine what the year of build is.
Since indeed numbers are various in other countries it is hard to find information of Danish bikes.
Details like headlamp, frame and cilinder are healpfull for the experts here. :-)

Thanks for the rapid answer! I´ll attach the pics that I´ve got with me tonight. I´d be happy to shoot some more, if this could solve any doubts. Thanks Again, I really appreciate it!

Hello Bjarke and welcome!

The correct number should be "PF50-A176376" And i would suspect that this one is built around 1975.
I will inquire for you and let you know the result.

According to The Oracle, your PF50R dates from January 1972.


Can you tell me more about this WAR code, please?  :D

Hi all.
Thanks a lot for the information! It´s amazing what specialists can generate from a frame number. Thumbs up for you Guys.

Regarding Mr. Van Geelen´s  request for details line 1, "WAR": I had to get in contact with our national Oracle for exact details. (That´s why I´m a Little late with my reply, Sorry) . As pr. today Denmark so far had two different Companies with the Honda Agency. The first Company to import Honda to Denmark was Mr. Derby Johansen. This Company used the code "WDE" in line 1. The Agency was taken over by the Company Nelleman. They changed this code to "WAR". According to our national Oracle, Nelleman still has this Agency. Their knowledge of the Amigo today is however zero. Could be that the older Guys in this Company retired many years ago (Amigo was sold in Denmark 1970 - 1977). Makes sense  ;)

My PF50 R must be one the earliest to be imported by Nelleman. I might try to find more details about these Companies, if requested.

A nice weekend to you all!! Best regards, Bjarke
