Does anyone know if it is an offence to have a bike mot'd and not have it taxed?

I'd like to mot my Z1 to help sell it. But do not want to have to tax it and then promptly un tax it; or get fined if I end up keeping it.

I think I have seen somewhere, that the above was no longer allowed, but can't remember for sure.

(its been on SORNed for 11 years)

I don't see a problem

No.
You just need to have it either a.) Taxed
or b.) Sorned.

It was the insurance that they were trying to get as " continous" Once again Free money for big business !!

Don`t trust this man ob Road legality offences ! He is a notorious traffic offender, even when he is on another continent !!!

You are allowed to ride your motor cycle untaxed to an MOT station and back. It must be the shortest route. BUT you must have insurance. Speak to your insurer how to best do it.

Thanks everybody.

"Notorious traffic offender" love it!!

gotz is correct, it is legal be drive/ride without tax or MOT as long as you're travelling directly to an MOT testing station, within a reasonable distance, for a pre appointed test. No detours for a quick blast!

Make sure when you book it in that they have a record of the booking in case you need to prove your appointment, should you get pulled.

As you're using it on a road though, it has to be insured and mechanically legal.

Ermmm how much do you want for the Z1.

Could be another T shirt in this
