Wheel date code Help needed

#1 PostAuthor: nick sanderson » Sun Jun 19, 2022 11:10 am

I have a March 73 Z1 which I have been looking for the correct date coded rims.
Before I purchase any what code should they be !
I have been looking for 3C but a couple of people said they should be 3B as a March bike would have used February produced parts.
What is correct
Any advice would be appreciated.
Nick

I would consider anything "2" or 3A or B would be acceptable.

3B is the most likely but 3A could have been a possibility. 3C is also OK.
I have a Z1B made on 26 May 1975 according to KHI. That has loads of May 75 and just a few April 75 date codes. I have nothing on it 2 months earlier.
