Dating certificate update, wish id gone to v.j.m.c for my dating letter, just waited over 4 weeks for my letter from yamaha uk, so it turns up and it says " we confirm that chassis no. 3xv 097- - - relates to a 1994 model yamaha tzr 250 R that was manufactured in june 1994" well its not an R its an R.S, and i know the vin is genuine R.S as the other vin on the first R.S starts 097 as well.Plus if i ever sell it the letter is good to include in the paperwork, and it might look to a potential buyer that its not a genuine RS, but an R model dressed up like an R.S in an R chassis.
