[BOXIN]

Hi, I have just aquired an RC45 (its a long story) anyway I thought this is the place to find out a bit more about the bike,
I have just emailed honda as i need official conformation of the year of manufacture for the DVLA.
I also require a Chassis VIN plate, will honda be able to supply me with one or can i get one through you guys ?
Oh and are the engine and chassis supposed to be the same, mine are 9 digits apart. eg engine 20 frame 29.
Many thanks in advance, Andy.
