I got fined £50 actually before my tax ran out (iirc) as "failure to insure", their automated bullshit system flagged that I had not insured it I had not SORN'ed it, therefore clearly I'm riding un-insured. (it was and is still rusting away on private property)
Don't risk it, don't procrastinate, just SORN it.
It's the next guys problem to re-tax it anyway  ____________________ The above post is most likely nonsensical.
I ride a Bandit 600... badly. |

Stinkwheel got fined, you chose to pay a bribe.

"SORN" it online, don't surrender the license (tax disc). That's not a SORN, but the DVLA will record it as one. More fool them. License remains valid, new owner can insure it and ride it away. No offence is being committed, despite what the DVLA may have convinced themselves.
If that bothers you, then "SORN" it, get the confirmation through, call them up and "unSORN" it. Ignore any confirmation of that. You have the bit of paper or email that matters. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.
