Well if Motorcycle VIN's are the same as cars then your's is a 1996.
Tips to understanding your vehicles serial (VIN) number They are as follows:
* 1st character- Identifies the country in which the vehicle was manufactured. For example: U.S.A.(1or4), Canada(2), Mexico(3), Japan(J), Korea(K), England(S), Germany(W), Italy(Z) * 2nd character- Identifies the manufacturer. For example; Audi(A), BMW(B), Buick(4), Cadillac(6), Chevrolet(1), Chrysler(C), Dodge(B), Ford(F), GM Canada(7), General Motors(G), Honda(H), Jaguar(A), Lincoln(L), Mercedes Benz(D), Mercury(M), Nissan(N), Oldsmobile(3), Pontiac(2or5), Plymouth(P), Saturn(8), Toyota(T), VW(V), Volvo(V). * 3rd character- Identifies vehicle type or manufacturing division. * 4th to 8th characters- Identifies vehicle features such as body style, engine type, model, series, etc. * 9th character- Identifies VIN accuracy as check digit. * 10th character- Identifies the model year. For example: 1988(J), 1989(K), 1990(L), 1991(M), 1992(N), 1993(P), 1994(R), 1995(S), 1996(T),1997(V), 1998(W), 1999(X), 2000(Y), 2001(1), 2002(2), 2003(3), 2004(4), 2005(5), 2006(6), 2007(7), 2008(8), 2009(9) * 11th character- Identifies the assembly plant for the vehicle. * 12th to 17th characters- Identifies the sequence of the vehicle for production as it rolled of the manufacturers assembly line.

10th digit in on the vin trouble is finding the vin!
VIN should be 17 characters long. The tenth character denotes the year.
The tenth character is the model year = 2005
I have found out that the year of manufacturer is a 2001 Model.
The tenth digit in the vin identifies the year. The "t" in your vin identifies your bike as a 1996.
the tenth digit which in your case is a t makes this bike a 1996
The vin will be on the steering head tube by the forks. The vin should have 17 digits, enter the 17 digit vin here: http://www.motoverse.com/tools/vin/suzuki.asp

You do not have a complete vin number. The vin number must be 17 digits. Based on what you have submitted (may or may not be correct), the 10th character identifies the year, in this case the 1 represents a 2001 model.
