[rustys_mk1]

hi folks signed up on here to see if you guys can help. i'm lookin for my dads old suzuki t500 reg plate RBB 174S. basically my dad owned the bike bout 15 years ago but was killed in a bike crash and all the bikes and everything were sold on........ me and my brother are trying to find the bike so we can restore it if needs be as a sort of memorial for my dad as it was our favourite bike when we were kids and would like it back in the family.

the bike itself had a lot of work done i will post up some pics when i get a chance to scan them but it was done in a modern cafe racer style in black and white.

just out of curiosity would like to know if anyone knew who he was as i've been told he was well known in the bike scene his name was michael james prior from washington near sunderland.

anyway hope someone can help cheers!

It's still on the DVLA database, click vehicle enquiry.

Unfortunatly I don't think so, it looks like its on the computer but it hasn't been taxed since the 90's.

I think that if you have a valid intrest in the bike, you can write to DVLA and put your case forward for why you wish to contact the registered keeper. i.e. they were involved in an accident with your vehicle and you wish to contact them etc.
