No news is good news, he will get you the report, sometimes it can take a few days.

Wayne,

Pleased it's come back ok for you :D

Get yourself down to the post office, ask for a V62 form to apply for the log book.
Don't do it by phone as they ask to many questions, the log book was lost by the previous owner :D
it costs £25 to process.
Make sure you also complete a SORN document, or they might hit you for unpaid road tax!

The last one I did took 2 weeks to come through.

Happy days.

Look forward to seeing the pictures :)

Cheers,

Blue

battery arived today , put it on , knocked a screwdriver in the ignition turned it on, got neutral light, horn , , no head lights high or low, or back light, so not tooooo bad considering asn't been switched on in over 20 years, i'll take the bulbs out test them give them a clean, while the crome work on the bike isn't that bad there is a fair amount of rust on it, so ive been looking on the net for things to clean it up, and i came across a great way to clean rusty crome, kitchen foil with a touch of water, and it works great, sets me teeth on edge when i'm using it, but blimey it works great, top tip that is

Hi
only brake light and horn work off the battery you need the engine running for everything else.
