We need pics. Make 9 more posts, then share pics. Then we can help. Or you can end up with two pages of wild guesses. Your choice

Based on the serial number it's likely a circa 2000 model, which further reduces the probability of it being identified on this forum.

Upon reflection I have decided it is definitely a MCMXCVII machine.

Colour a beautiful aqua-turquoise pearl.

Too bad about that flat tyre...

Sorry DD, I meant T-Mar was pulling the OP's chain, not you. I know it's atypical but that's how I read it.

Sometimes I think the forum has more fun with these "we can't see it" threads than with the ones which boast plenty of imagery...

My earlier post was sincere. The S/N appears to be a simple variation of one of the standard formats.

Gotcha. I wasn't aware of a serial number standard. Heck, most of my bikes have none.
