How do you know if you have a FK8 or 9? Both came out in 2008. I'm trying to order a new nose for my bike. Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi ron,

Hopefully this link will help you:
http://www.cyclepedia.com/motorcycle-vin-decoder/

That way there hopefully would be no question when ordering parts.

Also found this interesting article that breaks down what each part of the VIN means (and which one means the model year!):
