i have a kh250b1 project with the kh 250 prefix on the frame on the log book the prefix is s1f which is from the previous 250a / s models .the nos
are the same!!

nos on bike frame kh250b 007** engine sie 029*** on a p plate reg 1/1/76

currently dont have v5 as lost bike untaxed since 1990 but have done hpi check hence discovery of different prefix

would i have trouble with the computerised mot system ie garage refusing to mot because prefix is wrong

if i contact dvla and ask to change the prefix can they do this if not what options are open to me?

thanks gaz

the dealer must have registered it wrong.  I think if you get rick brett to authenticate the changeover, dvla would change it.

Only recently have you needed the logbook when you get a mot, normally the old mot would suffice (which in your case was already wrong!)

last time i had my 750 moted, I took in the logbook

the mot tester said to me "there is a discrepancy between the log book and the frame number"
"they don't match!!"

on the log book it said a number 6 and on the frame was stamped a number 8

I asked the tester what would happen now?

his reply was " you'll just get a letter from the dvla  telling you about the error, asking you to return your old log book so they can issue you with one with the correct frame number"

sure enough that is what happened

I have also (with the new computerised system) read a frame number off the bike (including the suffix) & on the log book there was no suffix

again all that happened was I got a letter asking me for my old log book...

ok so you don't have a log book but dvla MUST know the bikes details otherwise the discrepancy would not show on the system

apply for a log book, when it comes to mot time take both down and the discrepancy will come up, you will then get a letter......

hope this helps

that makes sense gary    but he'll have to apply for the v5 with the incorrect frame number otherwise he might not get it, if you see what i mean
