PS One of the great threads on UKGSer. Thank you.
Just found this today and spent ages reading it start to finish. Really enjoyed it - great job, especially all the little bits and pieces you made yourself and the problems you solved along the way. Only disappointment was that you didn't strip and rebuild the engine! I'd have enjoyed seeing you do that but I can sympathise with you giving it a miss! Well done
Thank's everyone for your comments
Good news and bad, I got a letter back from the DVLA this morning. They have registered the bike against a new age related number CTC 536M with no explanation as to why they have not used its original number (GWF 131N). I've rung and raise a query as to why, but don't expect to get anything positive back from them (it's true, all I had to prove the reg was the old plates...). I haven't seen the details but expect it's registered as a historic vehicle.
The new V5 will be in the post sometime over the next four weeks I can't get plates or insure it till I get the V5
Disappointing, but I can live with it
PS, In retaliation I might get a new black & silver alloy reg plate and kick it up and down the street to wear it in
It's not the 100% perfect outcome, BUT when dealing with the DVLA/old motorbikes/DVLA/documentation/DVLA/imported vehicles/DVLA/getting a fairly quick resolution......I would take that as a result....
Summer's coming.... ......
Unbelievably, this morning I received a letter from the DVLA saying they hold an original record for my GWF 131N registration ...................................
I’m thrilled to bits!!
RESULT ebbo !!....
I bet I'm not the only one doing a copy/paste of post #436 and saving all that info' Many thanks for posting.
