Thanks use2b. The Ferret was referring to the fact that my black 2011 CB has silver side covers and that I should get them sprayed black. We had a conversation about it somewhere the other day.
Thanks for the end of the VIN.
Meanwhile I remain slightly surprised that the eighth digit of the US VIN is the same as the European/UK ones. I'd have thought Honda might have used that to distinguish the bikes they send to different countries. For example, in Australia, the 8th digit is 'U'. Unless, of course, the process of registration in the US results in the issue of a new US VIN.
Could one of the UK members possible post digits 4-8 of their VIN and the year of their bike?
Thanks for the info on emissions, Flyn.
