Three years ago my son bought and then quickly sold a motorcycle as he left for the US.

You never change the registration in his name and the person he sold it to never did anything either.

 

How difficult will this be to get the bike registered and taxes paid?

My brother in law was doing some work for us last week and bought his bike around for us to get an MOT/tax for him. We went to the tax place they noticed it was over 3 years out of date..ouch, now he tells us.

 

He had to have a new number plate and pay 3 years back tax, then an MOT, total cost B1,030. That was for 100cc 2 stroke Honda.

 

So maybe not such bad news...

Yeah thats not a big deal.  But my son never had the green book.  Its still with the original owner.  It might have been a finance company if I recall correctly--I will have to check.

ur likely SOL

Sorry, I missed that. You need to contact the previous owner and get the green book, without it you are snookered.

 

Is the bike anything special?

As said you need the green book.

Pay insurance for the year.

Pay backdated years for road only l believe..

Its nothing special. But its a decent little scooter with only 10,000k.  Seems like we have a line on the green book--still with the finance company.
