Dave - feel free to call me and I can walk you through the paperwork one evening. V112 yes just put in your VIN where it says registration number. The bike doesn’t need to be insured either to register. Email Ray Davis @VJMC with dating application with photos from 4 angles and of ViN/ Engine number . Simples.

Davelu88:
James , have they changed that as well as you used to need insurance to register and what about the £55 tax and registration fee.

JamesH:
Still £55 first reg fee. But yes, no insurance required. Has been that way for 18 months or so now. James

JamesH:
Wiring diagram attached Dave (finally) - what a mission that was..

MrDavo:
Being able to register it before I insure it makes life easier, I had to MOT and insure the 750 before I could even apply. The dating letter has been ordered.

Many thanks for the wiring diagram, it will help a lot - I have a couple in my Clymer manual but this is much closer to the wiring I have, although still as clear as mud in some places about what colour wire is what. I was having a bit of trouble last night getting my head round the tacho bulbs, for example the turn signal bulb has a feed from each indicator, orange and blue, but no obvious earth - it's in a rubber sheath and so isolated from the tacho body, which has its own earth for the instrument light.

I've printed the diagram out so I can use it in the garage.

I did get the 'elephant's ear' horn working, it is super loud, sounds like a truck horn!
