skiboy Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Hi, I want to use my bike on the road. Can anyone tell me what I need to do in order to make it all 'lawful'. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackrat Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Hi - Just going through the process myself with my Montesa - to start bike has to have everything working ... no play in bearings, linkages, all suspension, straight wheels, non rusty tight spokes, proper silencer - no leaks etc etc - basically all the normal stuff to make it ride safe. Can be MOT'd on frame number - you do not need - lights of any description ( if you only want a day light MOT - much more envolved if you want a full MOT - not even a brake light ) or speedo - you need a horn - constant tone - not a sqeezy bulb type. Once MOT'd you will need a letter from the importer ( or a main dealer ) confirming the age of the bike to register it at your local vehicle taxing centre with a form v55/5 - pay a one of reg fee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanticmatze Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 I'd like to use my 2002 Scorpa Sy250 on public roads in Germany (I brought it with me when I moved over from the US) . So It seems that I need all that paperwork that states all the technical data of that bike (roughly 100pages) and I don't know what else... Seems to be a real p.i.t.a. Has anyone any experience with this stuff? Thanks!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
