why the Q plate?

You got it mate, that's the Cotton Traders/Zoolander Blue Steel pose.

We had to put the idea of selling ABR hoddies/t-shirts etc on hold as things got so busy down here I didn't want any side issues to interfere with the running/development of the mag. It's something we will be doing in the near future. They actually look quite swish.

why the Q plate?

I asked Suzuki for a letter confirming the date of the bike to get a date related plate. They said no probs and a couple of weeks later I was still waiting for the letter and scratching walls in frustration. Next day I asked the DVLA for a Q plate and now I'm out playing.

I'm still waiting for the letter off Suzuki, it must be a very long date.

It could be that the bike was never registered from new. ie bought for off-roading, then when registered later they didn't want the hassle of the inspections so opted for the Q.

Grrrr you beat me to it.

no, its like alun said all you need is a letter from the manufacturer confirming the year it was made, using the frame and engine number. doesnt have to have been registered before, my XT was a personal import from kenya and got an age related plate, its usually simple thats why i thought it was odd to have a Q
