Hi, thanks for reply. Yes the vin number is on the frame and the engine. It is T120 v GE25693. I sent pictures of this to DVLA and asked if they had a record of the bike from the vin number, but they don’t. They say I have to apply for “first vehicle tax and registration of a used vehicle” and they need “dating evidence from a vehicle owners club”. Do you know of anyone suitable to provide this please?Is there a vin number or engine number ect, the VIN number will tell you when it was manufactured. The manufactured date should be on the same plate actually.
Will do. I don’t doubt that you’re right, I just need a formal letter confirming it to give to DVLALet me know if June 71 was correct.
You were correct, the bike was built & despatched to Triumph Corporation,Baltimore,USABeing in Australia this process seems very strange. Won’t the DVLA accept the information on the plate? Instead they want a civilian organisation to confirm it. Sounds like the government making simple things hard. Who’d eh thunk it…
I was waiting for a pic or two. What a score. Thing's in really good shape too. Just needs a bit of a polishing and some TLC.Triumph Bonneville
