After the SMT you should have either 2 Js or 2 Ts mixed in with the numbers.The last time i was at my local dealership all of the 2009 bikes with the 865 i looked at had the 2 Ts in the vin,the T-bird did have the 2 Js,and I read somewhere that the T-bird was currently only being produced at the Hinckley plant,which lends credence to the Js or Ts method of distinguishing where the bikes are assembled.
