strate6 Offline Platinum Member On An Adventure Before Dementia ! ! Posts: 1149 Thank you received: 356	It was brought in in 1985..........see below. I remember now as 1985 was the year the Vmax was launched at 145BHP and could not be imported into France...........so they made a 100BHP model in later years (which was pretty crap). ! www.visordown.com/news/industry/french-100bhp-limit-be-revoked Pete F UK Why Have Four When You Can Have Six ?

I remember France had to revoke it (in 89 I think) as the EU Commission said it was against other common EU legislation: Not often you get a good outcome following EU intervention :evil:

Nice bikes, might be interested in another Z13 - can you PM some basic details on the Luminous Starlight Blue one.

Cheers Tim

If never came in until 1985 it makes sense these missed the aggro.......Vmax copped it instead...................
