Ok this will sound stupid, but how do I figure out what number bike I have?

42.
It's the answer to everything, after all... There should have been a plate or certificate, otherwise, search for "BCR VIN Decoder", which should net some additional results.

No try, do or not do
|
wouldn't the last 4 numbers of the VIN be the answer?

Did you ever contact BMW N/A or a dealer to run down your serial number? Or, perhaps do that VIN check against the MicaPeak registry to see if there was any information posted there by a previous owner of your bike?
Anyway, if it works the way it did for the 2003 models, you'd just need to find two or three '04 BCR owners to do a verification check that the VIN numbers and BCR serialization XXX of 300 built, are in sync. For example, here's the string of '03 VINs that my bike (#156/200) falls in: 153 WB10432A73ZB52921 41026938 154 WB10432A93ZB52922 42026908 155 WB10432A03ZB52923 41026939 156 WB10432A23ZB52924 41026940 157 WB10432A43ZB52925 41026935 158 WB10432A63ZB52926 42026934 159 WB10432A83ZB52927 46026961 Last edited by TandemGeek; 04-27-2010 at 10:46 AM.. |

I tried to call BMW, the phone number has been down for some odd reason?
I used the Voin decoder and it gave me a couple of different numbers. Does the series state the production #? my vin is as follows: WB10432AX4ZB53322 |
