Next issue is the stamping in the frame isn't very deep and they want a clear photo of it. I have cleared all paint off the area  and  corrosion using weak phosphoric acid. It's clear (ish)  close up with the naked eye, that it's original, authentic & correct fonts but not photoing too well. Any ideas? It has the alloy plate too and that's pretty clear but they say the headstock stamping is the most important detail required (plus engine no. of course).

Try brushing over it with white emulsion paint, then wipe the area with a damp cloth. Being water based the excess will come away, but do it gently, then the paint will remain in the stampings giving a clear view of the numbers.

I done similar but used white chalk...
I also used a good digital camera and for some reason it was clearer if i took it from about 4-6 foot then zoomed in on the picture...when from close up i guess it was capturing all the glare and other crud...

Keeping an eye on this thread Ash as I will probably have to go down the same route with my Bomber....... What are the bikes you are trying to get through, are they in an MOT condition?....... The reason I ask is that a mate has been in the same position. In the end he took it for an MOT and about 2 weeks later it magically appeared on the DVLA website, then they accepted his V5 without question........ It appears to be something to do with lost bikes details being used to sell stolen bikes (if that makes sense). Once its MOTed they appear to accept that its the correct bike as its been inspected................ No proof that any of this is actually true as we only have the opinion of the MOT tester, but it worked a treat for my mates 1969 bike so who knows. The DVLA appear to make up the rules as they go along.
