Bah. It's just another '09 that's not black. They should be giving it away.

Seriously, check the actual vin on the bike. I bet it's an '08.

You found the Silver Bullet! Hi-yo Silver! I would ride off and get the abs model wherever it is.

Well, I didn't make it back over to the dealer until today and naturally the bike in question had sold.  Fortunately for me they had already brought out another 2009 - this one black - and it ended up following me home.

Character #10, the one you highlighted, is the model year designator, with "9" = MY2009. So, I would assume it is an anomoly, or a wrecked bike with all body panels painted or replaced with Neutron Silver. Could it be a Canada or European bike? Not sure if Neutron Silver was offered there in '09? One last thing, and I am sure its just a typo, but your VIN has 18 digits in it. The C-14 VIN has only 17 digits. My guess is that you double-typed the "9" in question before the "A". Does it actually read, "JKBZGNB119A010XXX"?

MUCH better! But as the owner of a black "true" '09, I am hopelessly biased.  :thumbs:
