Dudes! I think you were supposed to copy the original post and only enter your serial number if it was higher than the one currently in the postion of your model. When you just post your own, how are we supposed to know if it's the higest without reading EVERY post up to yours? Talk about some boring reading...

In an effort to find out how many of these bikes were made, lets try a game of one up-manship on serial numbers!
My Canadian 80G is serial number 000298, so I have entered it in the chart. Only enter yours if it is HIGHER than the one in the chart for your year and model. If there is no number for yours (?) please, enter it for us.
List your changes at the bottom.

Hey, howz about we also play one-downsmanship, with the lowest serial number? Maybe we can find out who has one of the first bikes made of each type. BTW, do the serial numbers start @xxx-000001 or 000101? Anybody have the answer to that one? THANX.
