Title: Historic Reg
Post by: Bryanj on June 19, 2013, 08:10:28 AM

Just in case nobody noticed (like me!!) our wonderful governmaent (sic) has decided to move the qualifying date fron 73 to 74 so more of our bikes get to be FREE to tax

How generous. If I recall correctly the original proposal was age, not a fixed registration date. But then it was watered down...

Thanks for letting me know Bryan.  I sent a reply to you message but I'm not sure it went.  A strange blank screen appeared?

Hi Bryan I made it over

Do you know if it is a rolling date now so next year it will be 1975 bike then 76 etc so more in line with age then a fixed cut off date...

And one other thing I pm a message tonight and I also had a odd white screen appear?

Mjc, I don't think it is going to be a rolling year just add on a year when they are feeling generous, or when they get too much flak!

i have a list of frame numbers against build dates if you want to PM me yours i can tell if its worth paying for a dating letter from Honda

The white screens not a problem....
It's just nice to know if the pm is sent....

Even nicer if the free tax gets to 1975 then both ny 500's would qualify
Although I looked last night and my st 70 is now free tax so that's 15 quid saved I suppose

Hi Bryan
I will dig the frame numbers out later and get them across to you.
It's definitely worth a look

The white screen after sending PM and posting the first message on a new thread is a forum bug.

I've reported it but I don't think it's very high on their list of priorities...
