    I have RRE which was manufactured in 2014. It was a showroom bike and was registered in September 2015, by that time it was about one year old. It also says on the DVLA site that it was manufactured in 2015 which it wasn’t.
    So in theory a RRG should be 2016

    So, to progress an answer I went on the DVLA website to query the -F instead of -G for my 66 plate Black Edition. Having gone through the multi choice Q&A they sent me an automatic email. This gave a reference number to use when contacting them and instructions to return the V5, include a covering letter explaining the issue and send any relevant photos/info.

    I’ve now done that and all being well it should result in a corrected V5 being issued within 4 weeks.....

    I’ll give an update when I have any news

    I rang them
    explained what had happened and they said
    circle the mistake on the v5 and get a letter from a Honda dealer to verify the problem and send it to them and they would correct it
    now all I need is the v5
    still not received it since the 2nd of October.
    sent Nortonway Honda an email and no reply:mad::mad::mad:

    I found out the reason my log book has not turned up.
    Norton way Honda tried to blame the DVLA for being slow but in fact I brought the bike on the 2nd October and Norton way only applied for the log book on the 2nd November:mad:

    A tad disappointing. And again we hear of the blame game. I had similar when I purchased my 2018 Blade. Was waiting for the V5 to change numberplates. 3 weeks later it hadn't arrived. Same story - dealer claimed DVLA too busy, and then DVLA stated paperwork not received. Turned out to be 'mislaid' in dealer's office:rolleyes:.

    Put all that behind you now and just enjoy the bike!
