Shogun Serial Numbers

Is there a data base to determine the year of a Shogun from the serial number? Mine is S3N8795. Thanks

The frame was made in mid 83, so either 83 or 84 model year. In the link above by Trueblood it's the S(2) format in post #1.

Provided it still has the original components, we can determine if it is a 1983 or 1984 via the model names on the derailleurs.

I bought it from the original owner it is all original and complete the derailers are Shimano I don’t know the exact model numbers if you need those I can get them for you in a few days. Thanks for your help.

From the serial number the frame was probably manufactures in 1983 October. So there is a good chance that the bicycle is for the 1984 model year.
