How can i get proof of the age of my kawasaki ZX10 engine? i no longer have the logbook as it was sold along with the frame.

I went down to my local Kwak dealer with the engine number. He looked it up on the parts computer and found the details for the bike that my engine came out of. He printed that page off for me and I submitted it to the SVA man.

The sheet had the make, model, engine number, chassis number, year of manufacture, reg no, colour etc etc.

I wrote to the Honda UK head office and they wrote me a confirmatory note.

Cost me £35 quid though

Haynes manuals usually give engine code years....

Sounds easy enough then that, i'll give it a try.

Thanks

Alternatively just buy a manual for the old ZX10, it clearly shows the bike was only made up until '90 so engine couldn't be newer than that.
I just photocopied the V5's for mine, but it's a bit late to tell you to do that now!
