Mainly cause yours are filthy


Hmmmmm perhaps the OPs new bike has indeed some dodgy reg plate? If an MOT centre is going off the reg, and its described as an400, surely that would be easily noticed?

Lol well they are after yesterday, but generally they are matt black, I'd love shiny downpipes but I don't think these are stainless or chromed under the paint

Kwak ZZR had a K3 faired thou with very shiny downpipe, have yours been painted or is it muck?!

All SVs downpipes are stainless.

I think someone has had out the BBQ paint

Definately painted, got me thinking now about some nice new shiny ones, or maybe strip them back and polish, can't see why someone would paint stainless or chromed pipes though.
Ian does the v5 clarify your issue ?

I just checked the past 3 MOT certificates and they all call the bike a Suzuki AN 400. The V5 Also calls the Bike Suzuki AN 400. The 3 last letter saying thank you for for declareing as sorn also state Suzuki AN 400.

Everythink states the bike Suzuki AN 400 but also states 996cc in the same letter???

12 Months tax was £64 for 12 months in 2007 ? That seems a little low

Anybody got any ideas?

all i can say is What the FU*k lol thats very strange

Hopefully it's just a paper work error and dvla can fix it for you, do the engine and chassis nos match the v5 and mot cert

12 months tax is currently £66 for the year for bikes of that size
