Ct70 clone identification
Hi, Im new hear and I need some help on a ct70 clone i bought recently. I have a VIN number that was located on the neck, LB40505C82010110. its one number short of a valid vin number though. Ive entered it into several vin decoders and i either get an error or it comes up with no info. I know there are several china manufacturers of these bikes. I just dont know the year and manufacturer. Is there a way to tell make and year? Here are some pics.

The Letter "C" would indicate it's a 2012.

I'm not sure who made it but someone did a really good job of making it look like a genuine Honda. Mostly all the clones I've seen, the front fender is mounted really low next to the tire but yours is up high. I see its a manual clutch, 4 speed? I have two ct70's, a1991, and a 1992. I hope you find out more about it. Thats a great looking bike!

I am guessing the OEM is Skyteam. Skyteam has sold their clones under their own brand name, as well as several brands' used, or still use, their bikes. Pitster Pro is the only brand currently selling Skyteam clones currently, but they used to be sold under SSR, Trail Buddy, Piranha, and a few others.
