I don't no nothing Eric.....but I think the 1 in the last set of numbers means, 71, 81 or 91 . Sorry not much help. Does it have a metal ID tag ? probably a 1971, stamped in numbers on the blower housing could be 1981 and maybe 1991. But I'm sure someone smarter than me will come along !:laugh:

248th day of 69.
[MENTION=47323]OND[/MENTION] those last numbers indicate what production line, etc. They don't normally add anything of value to the discussion

Thanks All! This is on an original Gilson trail bike with the spoked wheels. All OG stuff and we wanted to date the bike... no kissing or heavy petting though! Off limits! So I am guessing the bike is 1969 vintage Gilson. Thanks again

to confuse you :laugh: I think it was a more precise serial numbering system that they used in the 1960's. They were dropped from the tag though roughly end of 1970, so whenever someone just gives you numbers and that extra set is there you know its between 1963-1970 :wink:
