Haro serial number help
« on: September 23, 2013, 12:53 PM »
Hello to everybody ;)

I've recently purchased a second hand HARO BMX, I think it's an ultra flat land.? Possibly 1996 model..? But I'm not sure. Its a twin top tube, bottom mega tube chromo 4130 frame. The serial number is HR KL6 3898. Although the 6 could possibly be a 5.(bit worn), Any help would extremely appreciated. Thank you. Jase ;)

think chromoly would rather be a Master

edit: ...ooops, HARO ULTRA 1996    would be chromo, too
http://bmxmuseum.com/bikes/haro/?year=1995-1998&model=1617

serial however sounds bit more Zippoish

only Ultra serials i heard so far were KH... something, but i could be incredibly wroong :laugh:

yep, 1996 Zippo wouldn't have em (->http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,164734.msg1646750.html)

however the one in link has a different serial# ("H0-K6A1820") than Jase's (HR KL6 3898)
-- and newer zippos again very well have 990s mounts.. (f.ex wr302's here ->http://bmxmuseum.com/bikes/haro/68617/2)

to complicate things: early Zippos were apparantly all hi-ten, wheras a 1999 one f.ex would have had the main triangle in 4130 chromoly.

like (the) Ultras also (mid 90's)Masters had serials starting with KH...  (also Revo's and even others, to make this insane)

and as cherry o top i have also found a Master starting wth HR... (a 1990 Bashguard however)

My money-s on 1997 Zippo -- so i'd if you care anyway ...would check serials of those and compare.

JTinNC over on bmymuseum (http://bmxmuseum.com/user/27720) ....knows his stuff.

I blelieve he could help you.

THis bike bugs me - lotsa guys say the 96/97 ULTRA's a great bike (and better than a Zippo, Revo etc), and call it the last real Twin top tube MASTER. (..not that a Zippo wasn't liked by many as well)

So it'd be interesting to find out what it is - the Ultra seems to be a badly sought after bike by some :daumenhoch:
