... date of manufacture and date of registration on those bikes must have been quite a few years apart I'd imagine.
Probably sat at Honda UK in a crate for years.I remember when the CX500 came out, a year or so later the CX500A came out and that got a little flyscreen and metallic paint, the the CX500B came out with the reversed comstars and then you couldn't really sell the earlier version as everyone wanted the A or B model.Queens Park Motors where I was working at the time paired up with Bill Smiths of Chester and bought hundreds of the earlier CX500 which had been sat in a warehouse at Honda for ages, when they turned up the crates were in pretty poor condition, full of dust and general crap and starting to come apart, the bikes inside were fine however. Queenies sold them at hundreds of pounds less than the CX500A/B and they went like hot cakes, date of manufacture and date of registration on those bikes must have been quite a few years apart I'd imagine.
the wording is "year of manufacture"
