When searching RealOEM for parts, this comes up.Dreadnought wrote: ↑Sun Nov 20, 2022 4:41 pm Keep seeing K52 being mentioned for LC bikes, not too sure why.
My guess is that K5x is the LC model and K52 is the Series as in RT.

The website below is interesting and may answer a few people's questions.
Type in your 17 digit VIN number and it'll give you the specification your bike was built to and the actual production date:-

Sadly that VIN decoder no longer seems to work. Or maybe it's just my VINCapt Sisko wrote: ↑Sat Jan 14, 2023 10:39 am The website below is interesting and may answer a few people's questions.

Re: What model bike do I have?
I have it correct as it works on the Hexcan site and it has worked for me in the past. No idea why it doesn't work for me with a new VIN.

Re: What model bike do I have?
I was going to say that it could be waiting for the database to be updated but obviously that's not it

Re: What model bike do I have?
It's the oddest thing as I used it back in the summer when I was looking at a 2009 RT. I got the full option list for the bike.
Now it says VIN not found.

Re: What model bike do I have?
Never used the decoder site before and it was reassuring to find the RT that I purchased last week is as per the documentation.
Thank you for the link
