It’s a SOHC but no frame label on the head tube, just the stamped VIN. From looking around, it seems to have a lower frame number than some bikes on ‘T’ plates.

So it may just be a case of that bike being in stock in a dealership unsold for a long time and then registered. Not unusual, as Moorey explained, to have one of these models in stock, unsold, then sold at a give away price and late registered. That's if its a 1st registered UK bike obviously, if it was sold in mainland Europe it could be for another reason I suppose.

I had read somewhere that the g was used on non USA. It could come from mainland Europe I suppose it would depend on the rest of its specs, but I do know they did struggle to clear the last ones as they were just too long in the tooth back then everybody want dohc.
