Had a few sets from ebay over the years and all fit fine, there's 3 or 4 set to chose from on ebay at the moment.

Misc / Open / Re: Good year tax wise

the wording is "date of manufacture" so most of the 1975 reg bike must have been made in 1974,
so will qualify

My question would be tho.... how or where do you find "year/date of manufacture".? .. i have a 76 AP50, XS650, GL1000 and all registered early in 76, so potentially tax free in 2016 if i could prove year of manufacture

I never used any form and i wasn't the current registered keeper, I just included a letter to the DVLA plus a sealed letter in an envelope to the 'current' owner which they then forward onto them. The DVLA told me that they could do this for me, but also bear in mind that i had sold the FZ maybe 10 years previous.

  They either cocked up or ended the service shortly after, because when i enquired again they denied that service was available, even though I still have the emails from the owner they sent my letter to, and he confirmed that the DVLA sent him that letter lol.!!

Pity DVLA will not even pass on details to  current owners, to aid tracing our own bikes.

Strangely enough they did used to do this. Many years ago if you sent a fiver and an accompanying letter, the DVLA used forward your letter onto the current owner. I actually traced my FZ750 a few years back and talked with the owner. However a couple of years later i tried the same thing and they denied the service ever existed..!  Good ol' DVLA eh..!!

Hi Steve, what a coincidence, we've lived in Ufford for over 20 years now so we might know them ..whats their surname?  As for bikes ..there's quite a few lol.!!

Where's My Old Bike? / Looking for VPV 550S & NKJ 321P
« on: December 21, 2015, 11:42:10 AM »
CB750 F2 ..Reg number VPV 550S.. it was in the original maroon at the time i sold it.. though it did have some light fin damage on the right side of the barrels when i fell off being an idiot.!

CB750 F1 ..Reg number NKJ 321P.. it was in the original yellow when sold.. and i'd done a twin disc conversion on it at the time.

I have looked on the DVLA website but they've not been taxed since 1991 and 1987 which isnt good.... saying that they might be tucked up cosy in the back of some ones garage....   fingers crossed..!

Anyway.. if anyone has any info ..leads.. or anything that can point me towards my old bikes, it'd be good to hear from you.

Cheers.. Paul
