REGISTRATION

I have bought

Sorry hadn't finished typing! I've bought this ST70 in the US and it's currently on a ship coming into the UK. It's a 1969 model and I need to get it registered. How do I go about it? Thanks in advance. Alistair

1st and foremost make sure you get the Nova documentation sorted.
Basically import tax, you need these docs to progress to the next stage
You will also need to prove the year of manufacture, and get an MOT


Easy

Nice bike

Are you sure it's an ST as it looks like a CT?

All the best Si

yes apology, CT70. Although I'm struggling to see differences in the ST and CT models.

Is there a way I can confirm the age with Honda using the chassis number?

Yes, search google "YOM Honda" should get a link to a uk Honda site the explains how to get a year of manufacture letter which the dvla will want to register the bike. Cost £25 plus vat so £30

Thanks for the suggestion. I will send a letter to YOM Honda with £30. I guess they might refuse given it's a US bike... Is there an equivalent in the States?

should be fine just don't say anything about that.
make sure you send the letter recorded delivery as they have a habit of loosing the requests!!!!

Well the good news is I have taken receipt of my little Honda and I can say the condition is as amazing as in the pictures! Unfortunately I wish I could say the same about Honda UK but they haven't acknowledged or replied to my request for an age confirmation. Is it worth calling them or should I resend another recorded delivery letter? Many thanks. I hope you all having a great Christmas holiday!

when did you send it?

You could try calling them, it wont hurt, *****
