Now time to do the R1100S too!
Not that you're gonna ride the 1100S anytime soon...
Now time to do the R1100S too!
My 05 1150 Adv is now exempt. Sent the necessary details to BMW last weds, received CoC the following day. Pinged straight off to TFL, notice received from TFL this morning confirming vehicle meets requirements and now 100% exempt .
Is that the SE?
By following the process on this thread I've just had my 2001 1150GS cleared for ULEZ by TfL - almost by return.
Does anyone know whether the same process would work for an 1100?
there’s a garage in Hackney that can test the nox emmisions and certify for a Ulez exception. But it costs.
I have just appealed against a prosecution for the Ulez charge for a 2004 1200GS, and the charge has been dismissed.For those interested as the other thread has now been locked. BMW sent me a letter yesterday that followed on from an email from them. My 2001 GS didn't require the NOX etc to be recorded on the CoC at the time of production. They have therefore written to me stating that the bike complies with Euro one requirements but that the NOX output is as mentioned elsewhere 0.03 so well below the ULEZ limit.
When I emailed BMW I included a copy of the V5 so they have added my VIN in the letter.
I submitted both letter and V5 scan to TfL last night and will wait and see what comes back.
I will update with the reply from TfL.
I tried this a couple of years ago when I registered my '06 Breva 1100 as exempt. I had to get the CoC from the factory in Italy via typical Italian red tape and it was so painful I thought I'd try to do other owners a favour. But TfL said that exemption for bikes registered before the 2007 cut-off was on a 'per individual bike' basis, not a blanket arrangement for all instances of the same model. Probably this approach is because the CoC is specific to a VIN and emissions compliance can sometimes change within the lifetime of nominally the same model (e.g. single- and twin-spark 1150s).I have also requested that the 1200 GS is registered as a compliant bike, and copied BMW so (hopefully) they can follow up.
