Honda Shadow 1985 - ULEZ
Cher Davis replied to Cher Davis's topic in Old Motorbikes, Projects and Restorations
Thanks so much for your response. Yes, my Shadow is c. So c stands for California! I didn't know that. I just know it's an American import. What you say sounds really interesting. I'll have to investigate that. Although I have to admit I know nothing at all about mechanics, hoses etc. But I can ask my mechanic to check the bike for carbon canister and emissions control unit. There just might be hope. Fingers crossed. Thank you again!! -

Thank you so much for your response. It has given me a lot to think about. It is a sad f-ing world indeed. So much work and expense. Shrieeeek! I'll chat to my mechanic see what he says. London Grrrr! -
I have an American classic import 1985 Honda Shadow 500cc and as I live in London I was informed by letter from the Mayor's office that my bike doesn't meet the new emissions requirements, so I can no longer ride ..unless I pay £12.50 per day to do so. Can someone please, please tell me how I can make my bike 'emissions correct', if that term makes sense? How can I resolve that problem? Is there some way to make my bike legal? I'd be grateful for any advice on this front. I'm desperate as I really don't want to sell my 'Merlin'. Thank you so much.

Hi thank you so much for your quick response. I didn't even know about this law change. I received a letter from the Mayor of London informing me that -- according to the DVLA -- they said, my bike was not compliant. What sites exactly should I check to make sure my bike is not already compliant? Also, could you please tell me how/where to find out about the offer of £1000 for scrappage for bikes, just in case. Makes me sad to think of that option. Can you explain what you mean by 'exempt' once a bike hits 40 yrs old please. Exempt from what exactly? (Sorry for my ignorance.) I wouldn't mind waiting a year. Thank you soooo much again for your helpful advice.

Hi guys, just want to say hi as a newbie in London UK. Looking forward to lots of bike chat. For starters, I wonder if someone can please tell me what I need to do to reduce the emissions on my Honda Shadow 500 Motorbike (1985) so that they meet the acceptable/required current legal levels? I haven't been riding since the law changed. Any information on this topic will be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.
