Normally I wait for the date to actually arrive before changing the V5 to Historic Vehicle, but someone on here mentioned you can do it any time in that year from January 1st. Can anybody say that is the rule, and has anyone been successful doing it before the actual date. Cheers.

 get a dating letter from Honda,the rule is date of manufacture ,and it could  have been in stock for ages before registering

Even then you may only get year of manufacture, the best you can do is month when you have a headstock sticker, and that don't wash with the powers that be, and by the time you have paid for the dating documents you may as well pay the tax and get on with it.

The 750 has been on the road for 4 years now. I was going to get a dating letter back then but never got round to it. Historic status is so close now that it's just not worth the effort, plus the reg is the authentic original number it came with and I think that's more important than a correct year reg. 750F2's were so slow to sell I know of one with an 82 reg, I mean who would buy one of those old things when you could have a GS750 for similar money.
