Quote from: Macabethiele on September 28, 2020, 03:06:41 PMWhy is there no V5 how can the seller prove he even owns it, has a legitimate title to the bike, that it is not stolen or an insurance write off ?No rear photo showing a registration mark?The V5 is not proof of ownership it is a log of registered keepers I have bought and sold vans and bikes without them.I am the registered keeper of my sisters car but not the legal owner and I have recently bought a Transit tipper it is registered with a building firm but I am the legal owner.A bill of sale is all thats needed.

You can, or at least could, apply for a log book as not the current keeper but you had to wait for DVLA to write to the "registered" person telling him that somebody had applied for one and did he mind, they then waited about 6 weeks and if no reply issued the V5
