Contact within KHI for manufacture date cert?

#1 PostAuthor: warren3200gt » Thu Mar 30, 2017 2:26 pm

I believe the dvla now require a date cert from the manufacturer before issuing a date related plate? If this is correct is there a go to contact within KHI to obtain one?
I'm after a date related plate for a 650, frame no KZ650B 507541, Engine no KZ650BE 030610 which makes it a 77 B1.

I hope you have the original engine in it as Kawasaki UK will only issue a date certificate if the engine number matches the frame number as it came out of the factory.

Been there done that scenario :roll:

If you need one then VJMC will do you one at a cost.

The DVLA would not recognise a letter from the Z1 Owners Club as it was not on their list.

I had Rick Brett do my green zed after Kawasaki UK
Would not offer a cert as my engine was not the original.
It took a while, but they did in the end accept Ricks documentation & I was Issued a age related number.

Not sure if he still offers this service, but worth a try.

Good luck
