Last week i was packing all my stuff for my trip to scotland....just happened to glance at the tax disc.........HONDA....eh!!!!.......searchy searchy on the internet reveals my thou is not taxed....but i was running around on it for a couple months thinking it was......so £80 later i have tax but whats that all about eh.......plus i have a valid tax disc for a bike i dont even own now......can i just cash it in???

Yep someone on here im afraid...not with mega posts but still seemingly legit & all that....im actually considering messaging him just incase there has been a genuine mistake........but really speaking doesnt the evidence speak for itself in this case...fact is the thou wasnt taxed so not like the discs just got mixed up.....i should have checked it but when you see all the discs in chronological order in the book you just take it for granted that they are for the bike.
Ok so it isnt the worst sin ever and im just glad the bike is pretty solid and hasn't broke down on me....theres a few snipped wires on the left handlebar which look dubious...ive replaced a spring on the ASV levers which just got worn out and snapped.... but apart from that the bike is great.......but it is just these little things get you worrying and they tarnish the buy.
This is why my next bike i will buy new....or nearly new via a dealer....ive already decided that....even if it is a lesser bike.
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
