According to Nick's guide, this would be a code 2. However, the ejector ring on the right hand side is approx 2.5mm, noticeably smaller than the 4mm. Has anyone seen this before?

I've got couple of questions about the motorbike;
The circle on the fuel tank with the upside down 7 in it. Is it an up side down 7 or supposed to be a Honda symbol?
The area were the kick stand should be has a number 2. I assume this is the mould number. How many mould numbers are there?
The tyres appear to have some chunks out of the side walls. What causes this? I have a few like this and can't work out how it happens. Is it a manufacturing flaw?

I thought the chunks in the tyre sidewall came from mounting the bike's wheels in the trailer wheel receptacle/recess holes.

when i place the bike back on the trailer it feels pretty smooth and i never took a chunk out of the tire doing it
