As a motorcyclist is it legal to overtake a car on a solid white line?
No. As the Highway Code says: you MUST NOT (ie this bit is enforceable in law) cross or straddle a solid white line on your side of the road.
If you can safely pass *without* crossing or straddling the line, that's acceptable, provided you don't do it in a reckless manner (ie too fast or just scraping by).
