OMO ID that bike!
 
Let's play ID that bike! I've figured out the red one (http://i.imgur.com/2zkWzyn.jpg) is a 1976 RD 200 (they sold the 500 a few years ago which is such a shame) last taxed Jan 1st 1979, if I can get it running I can ride it! However the blue one (http://i.imgur.com/Onlk1ev.jpg) I don't know, putting the license plate into the DVLA site doesn't bring anything up, no V5, don't even have a key! Also anyone know someone who can cut a key from a lock barrel in the Surrey/Richmond area?

Structurally the bikes are in pretty decent state but they haven't run in at least 35 years and weren't prepared for storage, so over the next few months I'm going to have a lot of questions about working on strokers!

Well it's a US import and as far as can be told so far it has not been UK registered, thanks for IDing it as we've been looking all day and were nowhere close!
