I actually started registration back in January.
We took a trip to our local office with any receipts and a few photos I was given a few forms and was asked to fill them in (I can't remember the numbers)
I filled them in there and then I figured as I was there I could ask If there was anything I was unsure of and within a week I received a shiny new VIN
After stamping the VIN into the frame  I trailered the trike to a friendly MOT station to have the form the VIN came on stamped and signed by a tester (any class of MOT station can do this)
With this form handed in at the DVLA I then received an appointment letter to have the trike inspected
It is all quite straight forward it is just all the running backwards and forward and our local office is a 45 mile round trip
you could do it all by post ,but you hear too many tales of lost applications and if you take them in yourself you know that they've got there

The old fella (Kevsky) is going into Norwich tomorrow to drop the money for the road tax and registration in for me tomorrow so it shouldn't be long now.
On another note I had a lot of help from others not least the old man so thanks for all the help

They're right, instead of picking up the kids you should have been out on the trike. Wink

Surely you should've picked up the kids on the trike?

There are just too many of them,every time we get back from holiday she's pregnant
I think we'll take her with us this year Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin
On a more serious note DVLA told me I couldn't register her as a Moto Guzzi as there wasn't enough original parts left so she is registered as a Manky Gutzi

Ok so today was her first run ,only about a mile or so either way to work figureing if I break down I'l be close to somewhere where I can mend it
Got to work fine I even had a little run around the sea front
Tried to get home for dinner the main live to the fuse box relay decided to jump off and short out on the frame,pushed her back to work and fixed her
Set off home for my tea she started popping like I'd forgot to turn the petrol on when I looked down to turn it on the pipe had come off and there was a trail of petrol behind me
Hay ho there never really finished are they

If they were ever truly finished you'd have to build another one.  Smiley
