Howdy all. I'm having issues trying to officially import my 1994 targa into the country from the UK. The local office tried to insist i should have a17 digit vin number, but my uk export certificate only has 2 letters and 5 numbers i.e. LT 12345. This is actually on the downtube of the bike, but then there is a "*", followed by 7 numbers. these 7 numbers aren't written anywhere on the paperwork, and when I contacted the UK licencing people, they insisted the only reference they had to the bike was the LT 12345 number. 2 questions come to mind. 1. when did guzzi start using 17 digits? 2. whats the relevence of the 7 numbers after the "*" ? ps, its always possible they started using the 17 digits in the US before elsewhere....
