Thank you.
Not registered as far as i'm aware. It was with me mid 90s and left Kent in 2010s maybe, possibly earlier. The guy who bought it had one as a kid apparently, and wanted it for display in his office. To my knowledge it didn't run very well when it was sold. I didn't see it for many years before it went so these details may have changed, but it had a Yamaha petrol atnk (re-sprayed red and Hpnda decals added, Honda with a wing) The exhaust had been sprayed grey, it had no rear mudguard, the front number panel was black with a green 1 on it, the forks were ceased, it had no kick start (fell off in a field and we never found it) and the clucth and brake levers didn't match - i remember the clutch was a silver metal lever, and the front brake was a smaller black plastic
