1967 CB450K0 Black Bomber Rebuild - By Royhall

<< < (67/98) > >>

royhall:
Success, nearly.

After 7 weeks of waiting the Bombers V5C has finally arrived. All the details are correct including the engine number change but unfortunately they forgot to make it "Historic Vehicle". So a little trip to the post office and it's now taxed and the V5C is on it's way back to DVLA. After all you cant expect the DVLA to get it completely right first go.

I will check online tomorrow to see if it's tax status has changed, if so I can finally get on with the setup work. I registered my 750F2 for Historic status at the post office on 1st April and am still waiting for that V5C to return.

Can the vehicle be used before the V5 returns as the MOT status online is showing as unknown.

Nurse Julie:
Yes, it can be used immediately Roy, as long as its insured of course. Did they give you the receipt for £zero paid?

royhall:
Yes they did, stapled to a declaration of MOT exemption. It's been insured under my classic policy all through the restoration.
It appears from the paperwork that when dealing with the DVLA you must never ever use the words rebuilt or rebuilding. Your safe with repaired or restored, but to DVLA rebuilt means something completely different and will cause you a world of pain.
