the frame number is from kle 400 you should look at engine number

if it has EN400AE003501- is KLE 400 A4 - because the frame is from a4 model - produced in 1994

kle500 has engine number starting with exor someting e*500 then number

also look at speed .... if it is kle400 you should have 140 (or 160 maximum ).... I will look at mine and tell you, I have a kle 400... if is kle 400 at tale lamp if you disassemble it to replace the light bulb you should find specifications in Japanese and English and also light bulb type for Japan and Europe.
