Honda YOM Contact

Does anyone have the name of someone senior at the Honda Year Of Manufacture team?

Its been three months since they sent me an incorrect YOM letter, they've inserted an F in the frame number and its come back 1977, should be about 72!!

I've written twice, emailed phoned, and am just getting nowhere, basically they have sold me a service not fit for purpose, vosa wouldn't accept a frame number different to all the other documentation.

I'm hoping to find a named contact, to try and pin something down, before I have to resort to legal steps....

Cheers.

Pete.

Well I finally got a replacement certificate, but all they have done is edit the chassis number, so I now have a CB750K3 frame they recon was made in 1977, with engine number 3112568

My chassis number is CB750-2212497 they've dated CB750F 2212497, both are valid, but 5 years apart.

I'm on the brink of giving up and calling the scrap man in, useless muppets...

Cheers guys,

Yes its an import, I'll try that number, I think the confusion is because the chassis number is valid with or without an F and the call centre agents don't get the issue, I'm not bothered about tax exempt, I just don't want a 72 bike registered as a 77.

Well, I've emailled the Customer services generic email address with a title 'FAO Sarah - YOM', included the two certificates, how 2 different frame numbers can have the same engine number is a mystery, clearly they just edited the 1st cert, rather than re running the query, also included photos of the frame number and plates, and a table from the other SOHC website which clearly shows my frame number in the 1972 / 73 range, and the F serial number in the 1977 / 78 range, so we'll see.

Problem is they don't acknowledge anything, so you've no idea whether they are doing or ignoring....

Well after 4 months trying, I finally got my date certificate, 6 November 1972, seems odd when the chassis number had a F in it it was registered 6 November 1977, I wonder how much research is actually done.
