Yes, that seems to be the way forwards......have to get an ageing certificate, an MOT, get it insured (to ride up to MOT station) and then send off form V55/5 I think it is.....just annoying that DVLA told me, when sending off form V62, to leave reg. no. blank, and then sent a letter saying "We cannot send a logbook, because you have not provided a valid registration".......but that's DVLA I guess.......
