I plan to road register my RM 250, and asked suzuki to send me an application form for the correct document. I received this -

Can anyone tell me which one of these I need? I guess its one of the top two. The top one says ATV only but I've read that that (the certificate of newness) is the one I need?

Any help would be appreciated! Karma

I'll answer my own question in case anyone else has the same problem!

Get the dating certificate from https://www.suzukiownersclub.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=73&Itemid=624

Might as well register for a years membership for £20 and get the certificate for £20, saving you £10 over the £50 price for non members!

You'll need the one you linked to, you'll also need insurance on the VIN, an inspection at your local office, a minimum seat height of 900mm and minimum ground clearance of 310mm.

You'll need a horn.

It will need to look safe and work correctly, road legal tyres and that.

It is hassle but great if you get it all done.

Costs about £100 at the DVLA place...and you need to trailer/van it there Thumbs Up

How come. Question Is it because of the type of bike it is or something?

Hi

How old is the bike? Over a certain age the requirements are a lot easier.

For an off road bike, which gets various exemptions which should make registering it easier.

All the best

Register it as enduro bike, nice and easy, minimum limits apply though.
