The ZD4PA.... looks very much like the VIN and the other bits probably relate to the paint code. It is a red Falco, right? Probably left the factory with those to be honest. Does look like it's a UK bike and not a grey import though.

Yeah it is Flamingo. Just thought I would ask as the sticker that was on the rear sub frame under the seat with the bikes details was really scraped and I couldn't make out any of the information on it. I've removed it as it was annoying me

If you still have it, I'd keep the sticker with the rest of the bike paperwork. It does prove that it's a UK bike imported through the official Aprilia UK channel.

Yeah I will. I'm a bit anal that way. I keep receipts for everything. In a folder, poly pockets and dividers for MOTs, servicing, general maintenance repairs etc. My other half thinks I'm weird!
