According to my charts that are derived from Hilary Stone (I hope he will chime in soon.) your bike was made in 1967. It is a close sibling to two of my own...

FWIW, four digit numbers started in 1962 (Had H plus 5 numbers before that..)

1962 = H2000- 1963 = H3000- 1964 = H4000- 1965 = H5000- 1966 = H6000- 1967 = H7000- From 1968 till the late 1970s things went into a bit of confusion (Again, maybe Hilary can enlighten here...)
