Type the 17-character VIN of a CFMOTO into the decoder and it reads the manufacturer, the model year and the country of manufacture. Our catalogue lists 44 CFMOTO models with model years from 2006 to 2025, from the 150NK and 250NK to the 300NK, Ibex 800 and 450SR, plus ATVs such as the CForce 520 and CForce 1000.

The decoder reads only the VIN itself, so it says nothing about accidents, mileage, theft entries or previous owners. That information comes from a vehicle history report.

What the decoder shows for a CFMOTO

  • The manufacturer and the country of manufacture, from the first three characters
  • The model year, from the 10th character
  • The assembly plant code and the serial number
  • Whether the check digit fits (a clear sign of a mistyped or altered number in North America)

How to read the VIN of a CFMOTO motorcycle

A VIN has 17 characters, and the letters I, O and Q are never used. Characters 1 to 3 identify the manufacturer and the country. Characters 4 to 8 describe the machine, and each maker codes them in its own way, so they are not the same across brands. Character 9 is the check digit, which is required in North America. Character 10 is the model year, character 11 the assembly plant, and characters 12 to 17 the serial number.

On a motorcycle the VIN is usually stamped into the frame, often near the steering head, and repeated on a plate or sticker. It is also in the registration papers. Our CFMOTO data runs from 2006 to 2025, so a 650MT, a 800MT or a 300SR from those years should carry a 17-character VIN, since that format applies to vehicles built since 1981. The character in position 10 tells you which model year the machine belongs to, which helps when two generations of a model share a name.

Questions and answers

Where do I find the VIN on a CFMOTO motorcycle?

Look at the frame first, often near the steering head, where the VIN is usually stamped. It is also printed on a plate or sticker and written in the registration papers.

What do the first characters of a CFMOTO VIN mean?

Characters 1 to 3 identify the manufacturer and the country where the machine was built. The decoder reads this part and shows you the manufacturer and the country of manufacture.

How do I find the model year of my CFMOTO?

The 10th character of the VIN codes the model year, and the decoder translates it for you. Our catalogue covers model years 2006 to 2025.

What can the VIN decoder not show me?

It cannot show accidents, mileage, theft entries or owners, because none of that is stored in the VIN. It also cannot read the shorter frame numbers found on machines built before 1981.

What should I check before buying a used CFMOTO?

Compare the VIN on the frame with the one on the plate and in the registration papers, and make sure they match and the stamping looks untouched. Then ask the seller about the machine's past, such as service records and earlier owners, and do not rely on the decoder for that.
