Kuwahara ET / Tange Hot Heart Serial Number Database
« on: February 14, 2016, 10:37 AM »
I thought this could be useful in helping ID and highlight potential differences between Kuwahara ET's & Tange Hot Hearts.
I'm looking for specific evidence so photos of serial stamps on survivor / OG bikes only (original paint / before restoration), along with a shot of the bike.
If anyone has or finds any can they please post them in the thread or email / PM me.

Cheers, Paul :daumenhoch:

ID Features:
ET (Models 3003/3009) - Hi-Ten - Tig & Mig (Rear End & BB)
Hot Heart (OG Paint) - Hi-Ten - Tig & Mig (Rear End & BB)

Me too! :smitten:  Although in reality the frames/bikes were fairly low-spec, I love the look of an ET, and of course the film takes me right back to when I first got into BMX. One day I'll have one, I'm sure.

Anyway, I digress. There was a nice, og-looking ET frameset for sale over on the Museum last week. The serial was T2H3791. My Photobucket a/c is all but full, so I can't post the pics but here's the link:-
