If Bike A is currently taxed/MOTd & you intend to sell it shortly whats the point of SORN ing it only to have to retax before sale? SORN is for vehicles that you intend to keep off public highway for a period of time, usually declaration made to SORN when tax has/is about to expire.
Didn't realise bike had to be insured if kept on SORN. Could you get round it by taking out short term insurance?
Gnasher-appreciate what you say. Wouldn't it be easier to insure your bike A for say 1 month-if your insurance company is willing to do this?
presume you are putting bike up for sale ASAP so although it would involve paying out for ins cover short term, your advert will pull in more potential buyers if taxed & MOT than if SORNed? and it saves you the hassle of surrendering tax for refund
they will only reimburse you for complete months unexpired-only to have to retax soon after. Keep it Simple! Lifes complex enough as it is
OR............ Why not phone DVLA & see if theres a way round this?
If you sorn it, don't you have to return the disc? Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
