Basically, I bought my bike nearly 3 month ago and around the 2 month mark I still hadn't recieved the V5. So, I filled in a V62 form and got a replacement (free) a week or so later. Problem is today I got another V5 - not sure if it's the one I applied for, or the one the previous owner sent off for. Either way, it's identical apart from the 'Special Notes' part has "Duplicate Document" on it. What should I do with it Question

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

Razz Cheers lads. Thought I might have to get a V2912408b form and send it off to the DVLA or something daft.

Just keep the one with the newest date, and destroy the other one.

surely you would shred the original and keep the duplicate?
Id assume the DVLA will have a lost/stolen marker on the original and expect the real owner to have the newly issued duplicate.

exactly same thing happened to me some time ago, im always losing stuff & i usually have at least 5 or 6 bikes at once so lose track....
when i got the duplicate V5 & then found the original, i called dvla who told me to send back the ORIGINAL as it was no longer valid & keep the duplicate.
think i still have both..................
cheers,
GAZ

I tend to keep the old paperwork as sometimes the registration number is worth a few quid and the old documents may increase the value of the number particuarly if the bike or car is an older model. I keep all my old Green books as they also help to date/ age a couple of my old vintage bikes and if I was ever to sell the bikes the Green book helps keep their value up. But thats just me.
