The factory records on some models are sparse and it is best that you contact our Machine Dating officer first on dating@jampot.com - you will be advised whether there is any information available for your machine.

If one or more records are found, you will have the option of viewing the details on payment of a £10 fee (club members only pay £5 with a valid membership number). If no records are found, there is no fee payable.

Please note, this service does not show all the available information from our records, you will be provided with:

  • Confirmation of the frame number you searched for
  • The type of bike found (road, competition, lightweight, pre-war, etc.
  • The year of manufacture of the frame
  • The model of the bike as it left the factory

If you require more detailed information, you should use the clubs' Dating Certificates Service. Extra information available may be engine number, gearbox number, dispatch date from the factory, dealer the bike was first sent to and the name of the test rider at the factory. Some of the items mentioned may not be available depending on the amount of information held within the factory records.

Use of this service is limited by a daily quota, once exceeded you will not be able to enter another search for a period of 24 hours.
