Well I got fleeced on the insurance front :shock: , but I can cancel that policy when it's got a number plate ...
Took all the paperwork off to the DVLA office this morning, and now have to sit back and wait to see if they want to inspect it :?
Here's some pictures taken last Autumn

Looking good!
Have you got your clocks bolted above the mount or below? they look a little high.

Yeah I thought that too but they are bolted below the mount - I tried inverting the mount to get them to sit down but that didn't work either ....

Bugger - DVLA are being awkward and want to inspect the bike - I've been sent a piece of paper headed 'Vehicles Permanently Imported into the UK' - I spoke to the DVLA guy and explained that it has always been British, but I think he had cloth ears :evil: - inspection on 7th April.... :roll:
