Ta for the linky QB1,

I'll save doing mine till after the 16th :cool:

Though, ahem, I really could do with having it up and running next year.

As part of the same changes, it won’t be necessary to provide proof of insurance when you re-tax your bike after December 16. That’s because a while ago it became illegal to own an uninsured vehicle (that isn’t SORNed), and insurance is automatically checked by computers on a rolling basis, eliminating the need to produce paper ‘proof’ when applying for VED.

Rediculas that you have to insure a bike whether or not it's on the road

If your bike isn't registered you don't need to SORN it because it belongs to you and not the DVLC

Finally, some sense from a government body. Perhaps there is someone involved who belongs to the real world :rolleyes:
