I’m led to believe I’ll need a dating certificate to confirm the date of manufacture of my bike in order to apply for a V5. The bike is a Monster S4R and was imported from Japan. I have the title document but it doesn’t state the year of manufacture. The date of manufacture can be identified from the VIN (2004 in this case) but I’m told the DVLC won’t accept this. Anyone suggest Where can I get a dating certificate from?
