Registration? Does that mean hes got the 59th HRC model in the country or how does it work?

I thought it was just a typo!

Number plate that is registered with the licening people.
If it was ireland it would be the 59th registered vehicle.

Here we register our new vehicles twice a year.........early 09 ones would be eg ns 09 stu after september ( i think) it would be ns 59 stu.
So he has a very new model

Sorry I have not got back before now, on nightshift

Here is a photo of the bike setanta, as you can see the original exhaust is still on. Was advised by the dealer to run it in first before I swop it over, so the Yoshi is sitting in the garage.

Re: Newbie

Thanks, hapy with her so far. Only covered 50 miles. Hope to get away on Wednesday/Thursday and get the 600 miles needed to get here run in. Didn't know about Honda policy now that you have t pay for the first service, dealer says it to keep the price of the bikes down.

Nice bike, and will be even better with the Yoshi fitted!

A mate has the 08 in HRC colours (totally standard) and loves it!
