I have recently restored SN60
They are a fine ride. I use mine all the time. Yours looks to be in great shape.

Yes I did see yours when I was doing some research it look new if you ask me.
I wanted to write the original CFR on the bike and I was wondering if the side panel was the original spot for it or its just something you decided to do? Was it done on both sides? I'm trying to restore mine to be 100% original.
Thanks.

Default Motorcycle CFR

The CFR for motorcycles is only found on the licence plate and is not painted on the sides of the machine.

Thumbs up Cfr

Hi Frederic, just noticed that the number on the side of your M-38A1 is not correct , it should read 67-07929 , you have used your serial number,

Hello Frederic

I put the number there. When I got the bike one side panel was painted khaki drab and the other was plain plastic. I cannot verify either side covers are original to the bike. Under the paint were the remnants of some numbers as I had very little info and found very few in service pictures of the bike I chose to do what I thought best. The only other markings were the letters MP in white stick on letters on the back fender.

This jeep belongs to the guy I bought the bike from. I'll let him know. So I assume 07929 is the cfr?
