s13a ◊ 2022-08-27 14:45	250 CE's were no longer built by 1975, as also mentioned by rapid. So it's either a later registration or some other wizardry. But the shorter bootlid handle does indeed suggest pre-1974.

tore-40 ◊ 2022-08-27 20:36	For now, with less than 22,000 made, I'd settle with a 1972 -- Last edit: 2022-08-27 20:42:27
