Scott, I can't help you with your query, but as you're finding out, the site has gone quiet over the last while. There is a fb site with the same name, and I note that questions get answered there a bit quicker. Good luck on your search

Hello, This is just to say hello to all members. I am not a very active motorcyclist (anymore) but often look after motorcycles for my sons. At the moment we have 2007, YBR125 as a learner bike for my son who is planning to move on to heavier bike. Hope to learn and share experience. Regards,

Just done a biker down course and learned a great deal about first aid for bikers and scene management. they also showed a vid on why we have smidsey just thought I’d share it

I wish they had something like Bikerdown out here, all the training that I've found so far is track based. Which sort of defeats the object for me. They don't teach SMIDSY out here, not sure why. Anyone who doesn't know of it.

How to make an application for the retention of a vehicle's original registration mark If you own a motor vehicle whose registration mark is not held by the DVLA, you may still be able to successfully apply for the retention of its original registration mark. To retain the vehicles original registration mark you must however be able to provide documentary `proof` linking the machine to the registration mark. This proof should ideally be an old buff, or green, logbook. If neither is available then the following may also be considered at the discretion of the DVLA a pre-1983 tax disc or MOT certificate, or an extract from suitable approved archive records. If you can provide any of the above take the following steps. 1. Contact the DVLA or your Local DVLA Office http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Dl1/Directories/UsefulContactsByCategory/MotoringContacts/DG_10012974 and check if the registration mark is listed on the DVLA computer. 2. If the mark is not listed ask for forms V765 http://www.dft.gov.uk/dvla/forms/~/media/pdf/forms/V765.ashx & V55/5 to be posted to you. http://www.dft.gov.uk/dvla/onlineservices/order_forms.aspx 3. Complete both forms and post them to the address below with full details of the machine including frame and engine numbers. Documentary proof that clearly links the registration mark to vehicle. Two photographs of the complete machine. One photograph each of both the frame and engine numbers.

To issue you this certificate I require you send me photos of thge frame and engine numbers and one photo of each side plus front and rear. To then proceed; 1. Obtain M.O.T, insurance cover note, & dating certificate. 2. Complete form V55/5]http://www.dft.gov.uk/dvla/onlineservices/order_forms.aspx showing the date you wish the tax disk to run from. 3.
