If it is not a Honda frame, DVLA will class it as a new vehicle, which means it will be allocated a current reg number, or possibly a Q plate. If they class it as a new vehicle it may be required to undergo single vehicle approval (SVA), and comply with all current regulations, lighting, emmissions, noise etc, and you may find that due to the eu poking their nose in again, all new motorcycles over 125cc MUST have A.B.S. So realistically, I think you need to start again with a Honda frame that is already registered, and have it modified to what you want. Otherwise you will be spending a lot of time and money chasing your tail and getting nowhere, and then you've got to find someone to insure it:-(

Hi I noticed the other day.

He has an early sohc Honda head stock by the sound of it for $75 with title. Maybe this could solve any registration problems you may have. Can't hurt to email him and ask if he'll ship to the UK.

Good luck with it.

When I wrote to Honda (with frame and and engine numbers plus a£30 cheque) they didn't want to know, and returned my money with the excuse that they didn't keep records going back that far (1974).

The Honda owners Club however, were very helpful and sent me a dating certificate for my bike together with 12 months membership of the club for £30 if I remember right - plus any further dating certificates required during the year.

The DVLC took this as proof of dating and registered the bike with a 1974 age related number.
