Well I did a search on Fife and I see this:Fife!
(UK)
Cheers where are u now ?Suggest you look at age-related registration on DVLA? I've never done this and don't know the ins and outs but it is sure to depend on what you do have.

My bike is a 1978 import, possibly from Canada, and it has been given an age-related registration number but that was before my ownership. If anything, might be easier with a European bike but I don't think DVLA is all that bothered about the details of Europe vs US models. They are very likely to want proof that you bought or otherwise own the bike.
It's a bit ironic, because usually we hear our American cousins tales of woe around establishing title on a bike.
By the way - I'm not far away and used to live in Fife.

Send some clear photos of the bike with chassis number and engine number ,

I have found that getting an old bike without paper work make it just a parts bike. If I want to put it on the road I don't buy without paper work.
If the seller tells me it's easy to get registered I tell them You get it done and I'll pay for it. Most won't agree to that.

Don't think you can get reg plates without mot,my xs came from USA before nova started, so had to prove all duties had been paid, that took a while.I'm planning on a restore so bike no where near ready for an mot but would like it registered before I start to spend money on it don't want a Q plate
It is then yes ,but when I did mine it was just one guy who I spoke to.cant remember now who it was though.Is that affiliated to this lot? https://www.vjmc.com/
