Hi m8. Give Yamaha a ring HERE and ask for customer services. Have frame and engine number to hand and they will tell you if its an official uk bike,when it was registered and what colour it was Im sure the 12A was the restricted mk1 and the standard pipes all had 10W stamped on If not im sure someone else will corect me if im wrong

as mellow says , give yam a ring and they will confirm country of origin. 10w exhaust is the better version of the std, yamaha deffo did another version stamped 12a which has the restrictor welded inside the downpipe. fink 12w is dt Doesnt matter which mk 1 version you have , but if you have a 10w marked carb & exhaust your onto a winner
