Just read this article on MCN. Can't quite believe whether this is true or not.

That's got to be rubbish. I've seen two on the road this week and there must be at least twenty people on this forum who own 3tj/4dx's.

It wouldn't surprise me if there were 20ish rrsp's registered but then that means bugger all too. I've got a 3tj7 in the garage 1 of 500 ever built apparently and mine isn't registered so there must be lots more stashed away in garages unregistered.

What a load of nonsense. I've seen at least 6 at one time on eBay, not to mention those in MCN, Bike Trader, Gumtree, Pistonheads etc at any one time.

That's just garbage. I've just tried inputting FZ400, FZR400 and FZR400R and it doesn't recognise those models and refers you to the above results. It also states on the site that the records aren't accurate for older models.
In-depth journalism at it's finest!
