Posted: Tue Dec 12, 2023 7:34 amSaid so. Not much difference in power ( only 25cc and a extra 4hhp making it 14bhp) or the other way around for the Ts.
Once had a friend who sent his logbook to DVLA the motorbike was a Kawasaki K.e 75 trailbike and the log book came back as a Kawasaki K.E. 750. So after he crashed it into a lorry. His fellow courier bought the salvage and got out his Teeps and found. (ok some local snottery junkie kid stole) a Kawasaki GT 750 and he teeped the frame and casings with his newly found Ke 750 logbook mistake. He insured it, taxed it, mot'd it drove it for well over six years.
Then whilst it was still running but not really legal he broke it for spares.
So DVLA are just as stupid as there weakest link. Yes the human who coverts bits of paper data into computer data.

Posted: Tue Jan 30, 2024 10:21 amTeeps are little numbers and letters, symbols to identify and print on bit of steel.
All you needs a hammer and a good way of holding them together in a line. And give them a smack. But with the revolution in plastic metals. All you have to do is grind the metal on the headstock down too far, and fill the frame with said plastic metal. And just press the `Teeps in`.
And sand away the excess. apparently.
Whoo technology huh
