Doesn"t seem to follow the rules too closely.
believe it's a 2000 model EC300,but has the 50 mm conventional fork?
What is it?
I believe it is a '99 EC300. The 30 stands for 300 and the 99 is the year model. The numbers toward the end denote the number/order of the bike in that year's manufacturing run.

You can tell for sure by the shrouds/seat it takes, unless the frame has been modified; same with position of the coil.

In 2002, the factory started using the standard system with a letter in the tenth digit position.
