hi guys just to let you know i received my new logbook today 21/7/2012 about five weeks after i applied for it,i still don't know what they actually did to recover the details ,as i gave them all the information in the first place ,the only thing i did not know was it only had 4 previous owners, although i knew the last two anyway lol. but they did send out a confirmation letter on the 4/7/2012 saying that they are looking into it ,and it would be processed after the 18/7/2012 awe sweet. I'm wondering now if its worth me going the full hog and shell out another fiver for the history of the two other owners,as in olden times this service was free and you also had the old green logbooks . BTW i have been told to sorn or tax the bike as soon as possible as the new owner could get done for no tax lol they are crafty buggers. cheers guys

You don't need to sorn a vehicle if it hasn't been taxed since Dec 2001 or thereabouts. I found this out on an information pamphlet I was sent along with a new V5. Of course I let my son borrow the pamphlet and it can't be found now. :(
Well done with your reg. My application was sent last week, I hope it goes as smoothly as yours.

Take care because a couple of extracts from the advice on DirectGov.UK on when SORN is needed are:
'SORN applies to all tax classes including those where no duty is payable, such as historic and disabled tax classes.'
'You must make a SORN if one of the following applies:
•if you buy an untaxed vehicle and do not tax it'
'SORN isn’t needed if:
•your vehicle was last taxed before 31 January 1998'
So my reading of their advice is that you must SORN your bike, but SORN isn't needed????? ??? ::)
I wonder what the guy in the wig thinks?
