If i'm reading this correctly, you have a custom bike without a frame number and another 750 frame with a V5...... For paperwork reasons these are totally different vehicles as the engine number does not really matter for V5 purposes....... If your feeling a bit cheeky, you could get a 750 Vin plate made up with the other frames number and rivet it to the headstock of the custom then destroy the 750 frame (grind off the frame number). Change the V5 into your name and put it on SORN, you can then change the engine number at will later.......... For heavens sake don't try to sell the 750 frame afterwards as a policeman will come........ All this is of course very illegal and I would have nothing to do with such an idea ever, honest officer......... I think the above dastardly deed is called Ringing.
That's cleared that up nicely thanks Bryan. Goes to show that some MOT testers are pretty sloppy, god bless em.Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk
If it HAS to be stamped what do you do with an aftermarket frame? Are the only options a Q plate?

It wont pass inspection if you refuse.
I've done an engine number change recently. As I didn't have a receipt for it I needed a letter from a garage confirming the engine number and the number of the frame it was fitted to. However they DVLA can ask to inspect it or ask for an engineers report - in your case I'd be reluctant to risk it.
