1983 Yamaha Midnight Special...Help!?

Could anyone help me discover where I can find the CC's for this bike? I have looked under the seat, on the motor, the frame, had the VIN traced through a yamaha dealer (who didn't have a clue..too old)
The only place I haven't looked is under the gas tank. I know the bike isn't any bigger than a 200 CC, and I know most of the Midnight Special's were 900 CC's. This was a limited edition bike, not an enduro type bike. So any help would be appreciated!

The engine size is cast on the Cylinder of the engine,,at the very bottom,usually on l/h side.

Cylinder is the Finned part of the engine,,with the exhaust pipe sticking out the front
(I apologize if You already know that,,,just making sure you know where to look

May be hard to see because engine is black.

The numbers are also actual engine displacement,,,,
meaning a 350 Yamaha for example will be written as "325cc"
a 125 may be 123cc,,
a 100 might be 98cc,,,,and so on.

You can see "535CC" clearly on the R/H one.
Those happen to be Snowmobile parts,,,,
but that's representative of most common/typical format.
Both those Cyls are facing Left=Front

.........................
Here's a variation,,,,
This one is facing Right=Front.
The Markings on r/h side of engine,,,on intake manifold at Rear of engine.
This was NOT common layout in that era.

Click the pic with yellow Mark,,,you can see a closeup.
It's written as "246cm 3" , cm3= CC,,,aka Cubic Centimeters

................................................................................
Those examples should help give you an idea of Where to look,,,and What to look for.

The number are Usually pretty good sized and fairly prominent.

With a black engine,,,it gets sorta camoflauged in the shadows.
So make sure you have Good Light when looking.

Hope that helps

The increasing popularity of cheap toys

We live in a consumerist world where everything has a price tag attached to it. The costlier the product, the better is its quality, or so the common logic goes. But like every rule, this rule also comes with certain exceptions. In many instances, the expensive products are not necessarily the best and the cheap ones are not necessarily the worst of the lot. The market is such that the costs of the different products reflect their inherent demand amongst the people for whom these are meant; and this demand could be based on factors other than the value of the product. Some people may be demanding products that come in limited editions with the scarcity of the products building up on their costs. But, this is not necessarily true in case of children's toys. On the contrary, cheap toys are very much available in the market, thus promising the customers the full value for the money being spent.

The parent or the doting uncles and aunts can now find cheap toys that can make the tiny tots really happy. While buying these toys, there are some factors that they may keep in mind though. They may ensure that the remote controlled cars or the roller skates being purchased are completely safe. The different options in cheap toys would have to be age appropriate as well. Many of these toys could also be educational for the little ones. And last but definitely not the least, the toys for the little ones should make them happy; they should be enjoying their time playing with the same.

The search for the right toy for every kid has become quite enjoyable with the coming up of several online toy stores and sites that are selling cheap toys.  One can browse through these sites to identify cheap toys that are both entertaining and developmental. The children playing with these games are encouraged to think logically and express themselves. Many of these toys motivate the youngsters to work in a team and build up their social skills in the process.

While buying cheap toys, the interests of the child have to be given the maximum priority. There are different kids with diverse interests and one can easily find a game or a toy that can capture their imagination. It only takes a few hours of browsing the Internet and a person can identify the best games and toys for the little ones being provided by some reputed e-tailing sites.

Many of the providers ensure that the buyers get the full value for the money being spent. The cheap toys – sourced from reputed sites – are also the best in terms of quality.  Many a times, the buyers can also make the most of some amazing deals and offers and acquire the best games at reasonable costs. This way, they can purchase some amazing games, toys, and accessories without making significant dents in their pockets. They can purchase kids bikes, board games, jigsaw puzzles, and even accessories for swimming pools from many of these provider sites.
