Help Bike insurance

[iansoady]

I must admit I'm confused as I understood it was as John says but Max seems to have successfully gone down another route?

[John Wakefield]

I dont think Max said he did not get club authentication but said he did not need his bike insured, there are other club DVLA authenticaticators other than GRA, so presume he used one of these. I cant see DVLA accepting an application without the initial club authentification and related paper work being completed. The DVLA inspection is something that has been in place for some time,not every application requires a DVLA inspection, so I presume they do this on a random basis and for vehicles that may have issues, ie incorrect or defaced VIN number or duplicate vehicles with same VIN number.

Come on Max tell us exactly what you did to get V5 ?

[IanCordes]

Yes. Got dating certificate elsewhere as gra require ins, mot & charge for inspection. Go down other route. No ins or mot needed, & dvla inspection is free.
inspection took place yesterday & all went well.
Just waiting for v5 now.

I am concerned that you may be spreading disinformation here for the www to see, regarding the clubs authentication service. Also, before DVLA arrange an inspection, you must have supplied them with authentication from someone who is authorised by the DVLA to do so, and that will have cost you money, a fact you seem to be skipping over. As you can see, some members are confused by what you are saying.
Can the dating officer please come on here and clarify what is and isn't required, for the record?

Well of coarse, would av thought that was ovs & dint need mentioning. & yes, theres a cost. I just didnt like the gra route, unless im mistaken it says on the forms, you need to insure & mot. The other route you dont. Simple. Y


So theres no disinformation. Like john says, there are other sources for authentication. Still a faf,
Ya still need v55 etc, just not mot or ins. & dvla inspect foc.
hope this clears things up.
Heres a pic of gra form & whats needed.

[IanCordes]

Clearly, the dating officer needs to clarify what is required.

[trialrider17]

Still no idea how he got V5C

[John Wakefield]

Clearly the form needs up dating, MoT exemptions now set at a rolling 40 years so all Greeves bikes exempt.

[iansoady]

I don't know where that form came from but it's entirely different to the one(s) I was supplied with by Stuart about a year ago.

This would appear to be an explanation for the confusion. Dave (Max) is looking at the wrong forms, presumably given to him in error?

[Max black]
