While having a pint with a few mates last night we were discussing his blade (bike) and when it was registered and the idea was put forward to try and build a data base to help with the SVA.
his is on an N plate registered 13/9/95 SC28E-23530**
Mine is SC28E-2352576 so allowing for assembly and shipment from japan must have been produced prior to 1/8/95 the cutoff point for cat test.
What I would like to ask is if any of you would be prepared to let me have their engine numbers (would prefer full number but I think minus last 2 digits would help) of engines that were accepted by the SVA tester and registration number (so he could double check if he wanted)
My mate is collecting the same info off people he knows who own fireblades
Info will only be used to help people get their blade engines through SVA
many thanks for reading this post
Tony
please send info via u2u rather than post on here

This may help. But if you want to prove down to a single month, then it may be difficult. Bearig in mind date of first registration is just that, if it's sat at a dealer for a year unregistered then it may be your word alone without the specific log book for the bike to prove it?

that basically is the point the sva want proof of date of manufacture prior to 1st august 1995, so the more details i can get of reg numbers and engine numbers. thanks for link

So you only need detils of number REGISTERED during 1995 to prove they must have been manufactured pre August as they were registered pre august as the pre 94 numbers are documented as per the link.

Does anyone still want to still build a car use a tired 14 year old engine

Not all 14 year old blade engines are tired

380 mile round trip to North Wales last weekend.
It made a great noise echoing off the wall over the Porthmadog estuary by the railway lines and through the valleys

Mine had 36000 on the clocks when I bought it, 2 years in my car now, on and off track, can't be bad .
