    I bought a honda XR400 new in 1996. It was a new model, newly released in Australia in 1996. Its build date was 1995. So it was built before they existed lol. Honda must have had a big stockpile ready in 95 ready for the 96 release.
    There is also a dealer selling new YZ450's on the bay at the moment...... built in 2009. Will put a link up.
    OK, not a YZ, but a crf250X, 2009, brand new.

    I bought a 2lt bottle of Pura milk last week, the date code was 12/09 but I told the missus we could easily get another 5 days out of it!

    Those CRF's are old stock from other countries that were never sold. They've been bought cheap and imported but they have no ADR plate so they can't be registered. These guys have been selling bikes under false pretences for ages. They specialise in learner legal imports, but most of their uninformed customers who think they're buying a 2010 or 2011 bike don't realise it was built in the early 90's and complianced in Australia in 2011. They put aftermarket fairings on their street bikes that make them look a lot newer than they are and people pay stupid prices for them.
