I'll drop you a line once I am back in the UK, but hopefully someone will step up and make a call for you in the mean time.
Unfortunately, as with everything 90's, and particularly 2-stroke, prices of fames with V5s are going for silly money... if you can find one for sale!
Maybe worth dropping one of the Japan auction agents to see if they can get a frame off Yahoo! with the Japanese registration papers, and then go through the import proceedure? Naomi MiyabePlus and Anthony Hardie both have good reputations -- I've personally used Anthony, but there are several forum members here who rate Naomi highly. Find them both on Facebook.
I don't know the import/registration proceedure for either Ireland or the UK myself, but there are others here who've done it in the UK and may be able to give you some ideas. In the UK there is something called a NOVA Certificate, which is then used to obtain a V5, but that's about all I know. Anyway, it's just another idea to maybe consider.
Here's an example from Yahoo! Auctions:

But while you could bid via Jauce, I'd really say you need an agent for something like this, who can talk to the seller to ensure it comes with Japanese documentation which would be essential for import & registration.
