Confused RVF?

Post by Eurosaber »

Right guys, im getting a bit confused.
The VFR NC30 was imported to the UK Officially right? So uk spec ...
I have a VFR nc30 1989 import.

I want to buy a RVF too, where these officially imported to the uk? And therefore UK Spec?

Or are they all grey imports and converted to UK ? Was this conversion official?
Im after a RVF S or R Reg - 1998.
But the production stopped in 1996... So how come there are S and R Reg's? Where they not used untill first ever registered in 1998?

RVF was not sold by Honda UK and there are no UK versions. They are Jap only bikes.

They were made in 1994-1996.

They have age related reg plates for R and S due to the reg plate process over here. It is just how it is..

As your other thread has some good answers in it, see that. Basically, buy one on condition only. The reg plate matters not. :grin:

They are totally identical. Only difference is the fairing design - White RVF decals, or Yellow RVF decals.
