Wondering if my old bike is still doing the rounds

Post by Red » Sat Jan 09, 2016 7:30 am

Hey, was wondering if my old bike mt 500 c186prn is still alive/known to the forum, spent many a mile driving my lorry wishing I still had this one!

Cheeky pic of it parked up, if memory serves it was wearing its red tank/panels when it was sold

Any info appreciated,
Steve

I don't know where it is , but this is quite a useful facility from DVLA - and according to this it is on a SORN with expired MOT July 2015

Cheers man, good to know it's got recent history, with the sorn and lack of mot getting my hopes up that someone may have lost interest and want to sell, big if though! At the least just nice to know it's still going

Had wondered how most came to be registered after they came out of the army, whether it was people doing batches of bikes or individuals just getting their own on the road

I just found this! Out if interest it was some dealers that would bull register them which is why we have so many with similar plates.
