    Hi Darren, just to be clear, was your bike 1st registered somewhere else and you now want/need to register it in England and put it on English plates.

    If this is the case, where was the bike first registered when brand new ? It makes a difference.

    OK mate, that means your bike is not European-spec which may well make a difference to the process. Just to explain what I'm getting at, I live in France now and over here euro-spec bikes require one process but rest-of-the-world bikes require a completely difference process.

    See here :

    I have ordered the import paperwork the v55/5
    It’s just the info they ask for is more suited for a main dealer to fill out. Otherwise it has to go to a test centre for compliance
