re:old log book

[Waggles]

When I first got my F1 about 2 years ago I registered it in my name and I too was a bit concerned about whether to SORN or not. The way I read it was as it was last taxed in 1985 I didn't need to. I thought 'What the hell' it doesn't cost anything so tried to apply for SORN via the website ( after getting the V5 back ) and it wouldn't let me do it so I took that as proof I didn't need to.

  nice one lester they even gave you an irish plate  the latest turn of events in my case is the last owner phoned me to say he found the old logbook and the DVLA had been in contact with him,just my luck ,so at least i know they earned my £25 ,so i decided to let them earn another fiver and see if they got a list of other previous owners

[LesterPiglet]

Thanks guys.
That is the original reg. It lists previous owners on the V5, I'm the second.

NORTHERN Ireland, part of the UK.
Everything here is through Coleraine.
Great weather here too, no need for apologies. What bike are we talking about Steff? I've seen one CB (750F3) here in the past 10 years but then I haven't gone too far as I haven't ridden in 20 years.
Newtownards is 3 miles away.

 @ lester its a  1970 CB750k0 it was a lady owner who had owned it in newtownards perhaps thats why it was painted pink 

[LesterPiglet]

I honestly haven't seen a CB750 that old here since the 70's. Mostly 400's here.
