If so, you can send pics of the complete machine and also the frame and engine numbers to the VJMC and they will send you a dating certificate for £30. I used this to register an ancient US import last year. Quote Link to comment

Swiss Toni Posted June 25, 2019 Author Share Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) @DezzaNah, mate, It's still in bits. I think YJ's hit the nail on the head. Production years run from August to July 31st. Hence, an '85F model could be manufactured in July '86! And, DVLA, in their wisdom, deem it an '86 model. VJMC may well turn up the same info! Edited June 25, 2019 by Swiss Toni Quote Link to comment
Simbec1863 Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 My UK H model slabby registered on an E plate in 88 comes up as a J slingshot according to DVLA and V5 I told them and no surprise they weren’t interested in changing it 1 Quote Link to comment
Swiss Toni Posted June 25, 2019 Author Share Posted June 25, 2019 @wsn03Found my battery box! Two mounts to top rail, one on bottom left side pointing forward. Quote Link to comment

Same as mine! That one shows on Robinsons fische for the F model. Usually, there's an option to choose G and H models if there's a difference. There's not, apparently! 1 Quote Link to comment

I gave it away to a member on the previous site. Wonder why it had the extra mounting? Bike was silver and purple. Import or UK model? I just bought it as bits for spares 1 Quote Link to comment
E T Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 There is a tab on rear of battery box its bottom mount for rear mudgaurd Quote Link to comment
wsn03 Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Sorry chaps, I've led you on a wild goose chase. Yes the tab at the back is for the mud guard. Trying to remember what the issue with my box was. I think it had an extra tab at the front of it, I remember it had an extra tab that stopped me from being able to locate the box in its rightful place, possibly at the front of it. I remember it was identical apart from this extra tab - possibly from a later model perhaps? Quote Link to comment
