reddevilsjp Posted May 26, 2011 Posted May 26, 2011 Hello all, I have just signed up to the Y.O.C. I am thinking of buying a Yamaha YZF-750R which is a 96N plate. Just taking my full bike licence after over 20yrs off a bike and coming back from the dark side of cars. Can anybody recommend a cheap method of checking up on a bikes history as I did an HPI check and it came back as a Yamaha Cherokee and not the YZF I was expecting. Thanks for listening, Si

Thanks for listening, Si Try this mate, it isn't a HPI Check site, but if you put in your registration of your bike, it will tell you the model etc, plus as an added bonus, what oil is reccomended for your bike, hope it helps. http://www.castrol.com/castrol/iframe.do?categoryId=9024084&contentId=7044829 Oh and btw, you might find introducing yourself in the new members threads, a brief intro, pics etc, might get a few more responses
AdamFozz Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 Hey, You can get a cheap check for about £4 (mycarcheck in google) and it will confirm the make, model, engine number, frame number, stolen, write off etc. This should be cool for a bike of this age. Anything newer and RAC do a full HPI (cheaper than HPI strangely!) for about 12-14 quid depending if there is an offer on and this will give you the all important finance check. If it turns out that their info is wrong they also pay you back the money you paid for the bike should you need to claim. Adam_Fozz
