A site that lets you see how many of any car/bike are left on the road in the UK.

https://howmanyleft.co.uk/

Only 1 Honda NR750 left in the UK, and it's been SORN since late 2009.

How accurate is it?

Says that there is 59 left (23 Licensed and 36 SORNed) of my bike but its not really a rare bike, you still see a few about even just locally so I would have thought more then 23 are on the road thoughout the whole country Confused

Indeed, how long before their server pops under the sudden increase in traffic? Laughing

no idea, I suspect it grabs figures from the DVLA somehow.

Grabs it's data from the DVLA so it's them that aren't right rather than the site. Have a read through the link I posted further up..

Just checked out one of my bikes, a KLX 300R and they reckon that there are only 3 licenced and 4 SORN.
I don't think so.

the name of the vehicle makes a big difference, like NR 750, or NR750 or NR750R (if it exists)


Lots of vehicles are registered slightly differently

I dont know if I believe the stats are entirely accurate but places 1821 licenses in 2004 (assumedly including new from the final 2003 model year) as highest on year for the xj900s diversion in 2004 against 1274 last year suggesting a fair number of them still in circulation...
It gives some unbelievable results for MZs on the other hand. Like 3 ETZ251 licenses in 2011!?

The site doesn't seem to use an intelligent search engine, looks like you have to enter the vehicle name exactly as it would appear on a registration document.

No Ariels left and I suppose that includes all the Atoms out there. A web site of no use IMHO.

Look at your V5C. It most likely lists the bike as a VTR 1000 SP-Y (mine was) . I've no idea why that was the main registered ID for SP-1s in the UK, but there you have it.

Lots of those still about.

Incidentally, the SP-2 was actually recorded as the VTR 1000 S-2 / S-3 / S-4 / S-5 and S-6 depending on the year of production.


For that reason, if you're looking for your bike, look at what it's recorded as on the V5, don't just put the model in.
