I need the Yammi Guru expertise herei bought a 1993 yamaha Phazer in Billings Montana and plan on bringing it up to Canada, however there is no month of manufacturer anywhere on the sled, so i was hoping that someone might be able to tell if the VIN # might identify the month and year of manufacture.I have to prove it is 15+ years old to bring it across the border with only a bill of sale. If it is one day newer than 15yrs, I have to go through the RIV program, and a bunch more hoops.93 Yamaha Phazer VIN # 8AM-001530Thanks in advanceB.

I went through the same thing on a couple o f1976 yamaha exciters that I bought(these sleds were MINT) owner didn't have titles, so I went to dmv to do new titles up, and the vin numbers on tunnel could never be brought up in the system. It was such a gong show going back and forth that I ended up selling the units and being done with it.
If you got a good enough deal on them, just deal with the riv. It's only 205 bucks and pm me for info and I'll help you get through and inspected within a week.
Fortunatly he has the titles, did you have the problem when trying to register the 76 sleds? Just wondering because I have never registered a sled before and dont intend on registering these either.many thanksdalemy problem was there wasn't a title to import them. I couldn't bring them across period.
I went to dmv down in montana to do a lost title/transfer dealio, and could never get a straight answer. It sucked selling these sled, they were awesome.

I'm guessing that you have talked to riv already with the info that you have given. I'll try and give that vin to one of the dealers I deal with and see if she can come up with something. She's great at that kind of stuffs. I'll let you know tomorrow.
