Look for year and month numbers; 74 (large space) 6 would be June of '74. Safe to assume that the rest of the bike is approximately the same age.

I'll try and remember to take a picture of it next time I'm down to the farm. It's hanging in the barn at the family farm couple hours from here.

Yeah 64-65 were the years for twist grips but they lingered on some of the rebrands. The trigger is infinitely superior.
