Looks like PCD12119563 to me... also looks sort of like a rebel frame with shadow tins?

Local PD can't help you? Did you buy this? Trying to register it?

According to this site:
Honda - VIN - Vehicle Identification Number
Which states:


From 1979 to 1995 Honda had a 11-digit VIN

e.g. RD023600883
R: cc (A=up to 50, D=up to 70, H=up to 80, J=up to 125, K=up to 150, M=up to 250, N=up to 400, P=up to 600, R=up to 800, S=up to 800)
D: type of motorcycle (B=kids bike/ATC, C=Street, D=Enduro, E=OHV/Offroad bike - not street legal, F=Scooter)
02: internal production number (here NX650 Dominator)
3: version
6: series
00883: serial number

So your "PC012119563"
Is a 600 Street...something.

Hey...it's more that you had, right?

Now only if was in Gerrmany that would be correct. That's a German website. See the DE the address. That stands for Deutsche. That's why I asked him if it was a U.S. model which apparently it isn't. Maybe someone it the Serivce brought it to the States.

Right,,my guess would be a Honda Steed, just like the vlx, but a 400, still a shadow,,someone probably added the 600 part when the 400 part wouldn't be accepted into some hwy dept computer system.

It was bought in Belgium by a dude in the service and brought back state side. I think its a 600cc but i dont know on the other parts/year/brand ect. I bought it and it has a vaild Title. It is registered so I didn't have a problem until I googled to try and find parts for a 1980 shadow lol. Thanks guys the mystery is unraveling !

Honda made the steed for the Asian/European market,, bet that it is truly a 400. Take it to a dealer and see what the mechanics tell you., same as the 600 in every way except the engine. Btw the #'s on the engine is the engine serial # only, different altogether from the vin# which you will find on the steering neck area of the frame on the drivers left side of the neck.
