Homologation papers/info on V5?
Hey,
Has anyone ever received a set of these? I ultimately need proof of the SV1000 K4 emissions to try and get around this stupid blimmin' ULEZ nonsense. It angers me so much that my SV was fine one day, then not the next - simply because of it's age. If anyone has a copy AND it shows the emissions value, please let me know! alternatively, I don't have the V5 to hand, does it show the emissions value on there? I'd hate to sell the SV. I've put so much effort into it and I loooove it. Thanks guys

Re: Homologation papers/info on V5?
They might be changing the rules a bit shortly... hopefully...
https://www.motorcyclenews.com/news/...on-sadiq-khan/ I checked my K8 SV650s and it says it's not subject to ULEZ charge . Will that change though as it becomes older? Surely it's either polluting now and always or not and won't be any different in a few years? |

Re: Homologation papers/info on V5?
MCN quote ... " Finding out is easy too. The first step is to check if your bike is already exempt by putting your registration number into the TfL ULEZ vehicle checker. If someone else has already proved to TfL that your model meets the emissions standards, then you are already exempt. If not, you’ll need to do a little leg work. All recent bikes have a Certificate of Conformity, which lists the NOx emissions. It may also be shown on your V5, and if it’s below 0.15 g/km it’s simply a case of sending a copy to TfL, who will then exempt the bike. With huge costs associated with the zone, it’s well worth doing your homework."

Re: Homologation papers/info on V5?
Oh and just checked with Fowlers, they're pretty convinced the certificate of compliance doesn't contain emissions values. So, essentially, the homologation papers won't have them.
Wonder if there's anywhere I can get independently tested.

They're just working on when various Euro rules came into play. Just to be clear, I'm all for the ULEZ. Anything that reduces pollutants is a good thing, anyone who denies their impact is a twonk, simple as that. But running bikes through it is obnoxious at best. Especially when they're fuel injected and put out about 1/100th of the pollutants of even the cleanest cars. There seems to be some movement from Khan on this, according to that article posted earlier by Adam, so fingers crossed....

Re: Homologation papers/info on V5?
Just did the vehicle checker, my 650 SK6 would mean I would need to pay. Single plug.
Thankfully I don't work in the ghetto anymore. |
