Ian,
My Rare Bird Ambo has a number plate. Maybe one of the first bikes with a number plate then? better add 5000$ to mine. (Special half price sale for 15,000$!!).

Basically the bike was a V700 with bigger engine and different paint (now
available in black, red, white) and pinstriping. All the "A series" Ambos I
recorded have a serial number 12xxx. Did I mention that this series is the
most valuable of all the Loops :-) Charlie and I both agree that one of
these babies will cost you $25,000 :-) By the way...these bikes did not have
the VIN plate either and were produced late 1968-1969 (approx).
When they went to the full blown Ambo in 1970 they had a VIN plate, frame
and serial numbers matched and the serial numbers were from 13xxx - 26xxx.
This series ran 1970-1972 (approx)
