1 - PRODUCTION (6F V.I.N. serie)

First of all, a big thanks to Mr Enrico Minazzi the owner of Aermacchi Historical Register http://www.aermacchimoto.com who provided the informations about models produced by AMF-HD. Below is shown a table that qualifies the units produced per year. The table is related to the 6F serie (SS 125 - SST 125). Unfortunately, the data are only partial because some registry has been lost through the years. In addition to these should be added the 6F motorcycles manufactured for the American market, which had some different characteristichs from those of the italian an European markets. Update in progress.

The OM 14754 omologation was released to AMF Harley Davidson in data May 23, 1975, first frame 6F-60000 H5 (SS 125).
The OM 14754 omologation was extended with OM 17697 in data Jan 27, 1978 for brake disc variant, starting from frame 6F-80000 H8. Name changes from SS 125 to SST 125.
The OM 19201 omologation was released to Cagiva in data Feb 08, 1979, starting from frame 6F-82102 (SST 125).
Damaged frames are replaced with new one. The S/N was the same but a "S" was added as follows: 6F-60219 HS7 (for AMF/HD); 6F-96514 S (for Cagiva).
Frame replacement was possibly provided with the new factory name. Example: AMF|H-D|Cagiva DGM 14754 OM 6F-81926 switch to Cagiva DGM 19201 OM 6F-81926 S.
DGM = Direzione Generale Motorizzazione civile (an italian State Body under the control of the Ministry of Transport).

3 - V.I.N. FONT

Below is an explanatory table about the font type used to indicate the S/N. It's changed during the production for a total of 3 different types. First type (1) was used by Harley Davidson and by Cagiva. This is the classic HD font. It appears to have been carved and hand made. In a note issued by Harley Davidson was clarified that the numbers 6 and 9, although different in the signature to make them recognizable, were both interchangeable. Second type (2) was used only on 2102 units. It appears tinner and more regular. Both fonts (1) e (2) are embossed on a metal plate welded on the steering tube. Upon reaching S/N 6F-100000, with addition of sixth digit, Cagiva decided to abandon the metal plate and imprint the S/N directly on the frame, on steering tube. The font was also changed (3), smaller than the previous one.
