Variomatic Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Perhaps could be some confusion due to it being a northern Ireland bike? You could try seeing if they can find anything from the VIN number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dooferdanger Posted August 14, 2016 Author Share Posted August 14, 2016 tax office shut in northern ireland in 2012 i think it was and apparently any bikes/cars/any vechile which didnt have a new tax book issued wasnt transfered to swansea. therefore the bike does now not exist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! useless shower of *&^%*++$£$%s!! i apparently have to fill in forms and get someone to verify that the bike exists but dont know who to ask.

slice Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Talk to your local police traffic officers, they will help if they can, all you need is for someone in authority to verify that the bike exists and it has the correct ID numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 A good few years ago I bought a Q plate xs1100. It had matching numbers and was imported from Holland. I contacted Yamaha UK with frame and engine numbers. They sent me a letter stating it was a 1979 model imported to Europe. I forwarded this onto DVLA and was issued with an age related plate. A couple of years back I also bought a Triumph Speed Twin also on a Q plate. This bike also had matching numbers, so this time I contacted the Triumph Owners Club, supplied them with pics of the engine and frame numbers, and they then gave me a dating certificate that it was a 1959 model. This time I had to get a VOSA inspection which was straightforward and I was, again, issued with an age related plate. Neither was an overly complicated piece of business and both hinged on the dating letter from the appropriate 'specialist' so as stated above contact Mr Dawkins, whose name has been used a number of times on this forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
