I've never shown anything either
Just asked age, model and approx year
If you haven't got a non UK reg doc or a dating letter you will need one anyway for DVLA
Think your MOT guy was just being an awkward cnut

Agree, dating is just dating....
But sounds like that mot guy is being awkward.......p.S. using the word awkward avoids referencing female genitalia....

Remember when sending it all to DVLA state in the covering letter why there is no non UK reg doc
Even if it is just to state there wasn't one available
Sounds obvious but I've had them sent back asking why there isn't one. Even after stating there was no reg doc hence the dating letter 🙄

You need all the dating info for a VIN MOT. They have to input DOM colour, mileage (if an odometer is fitted) etc. into the MOT system. If you don't have the info, then no MOT can be issued.

Never had a problem MOT'ing on the frame number either,depends on the level of a***hole testing the bike?you could always take your custom elsewhere?

Happened to me with a German import. Paul Dawkins worked miracles.

When i MOT'ed my hybrid, i needed the dating cert before hand as the data needs putting on the database with the correct month/year of manufacture. The MOT tester is a mate so i know this is genuine and not just a arsey MOT tester.
Rung Paul Dawkins and got one in the post in a couple of days, brilliant service.
Also all the dates tie up for when your applying for a REG number so DVLA haven't got a excuse to knock it back, i got a REG number back in 3 weeks

Just state in the covering letter that there is no non UK logbook as there was not one available so you have provided a dating letter to prove make, model and year
