historic not QUITE well yes
billy192:
OK so I have a 1976 K6 CB750 as some know. as it was first registered on 29/09/1976 i went to change the taxation class to historic and the PO did not have any idea how to do it, although I have done my other 4 bike at the same PO. they said I had to ring the dreaded DVLA. well I did. and the records show that my bike was indeed registered on the 29/09/1976 BUT the date of manufacture according to there records was 22/01/1977, i did ask as to how it could be registered before being made and she said it must have been a typo during first reg but she could not change the Jan date. furthermore I need to get a letter from Honda (headed paper) confirming the exact date of manufacture then and only then can i change to historic (providing 40 years have passed) or wait until Jan 2018
so how do i get the letter and who do i have to pay?
chassis number CB750 2576681
Engine number CB750E 2466238

hi,
hope you and your good lady are ok,
I got my 500 dated a few years ago,
contact their head office,it used to cost £30 inc VAT

I think this is the link you want:
http://www.honda.co.uk/motorcycles/my-bike/year-of-manufacture.html
I have been down this route - my 400 is a 1977 bike but wasn't registered until 1981 (don't know why) and year of manufacture was also shown as 1981.
I want to be able to get the historic class when it is due so got things changed, and DVLA also issued an age-related registration (now 'S', was ''W').
This assumes it is a UK bike. If not the VJMC have a dating service which can be used for imports: http://www.vjmc.com/dating-service.html

Not sure if I'm missing something here but I thought the vehicle needed to be built before 01 January 1976. DVLA seem to agree on their website.
