Hmmmm....Food for thought.
I don't know whether the plug on my bike is ally or steel, being registered in June 2001 probably means that the bike was built in early 2001 or more likely in late 2000.
So, probably ally then. Something else to watch out for...not that my bike ever gets thrashed or anything
