1. DVLA form V765. This can be downloaded and printed from the DVLA website.
https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/application-to-register-a-vehicle-under-its-original-registration-number
The owner completes sections 1 to 4 inclusive and leaves section 5 blank. The VOC Machine Registrar will complete section 5.
2. At least two printed photographs of the bike, one from each side. Angle one of the photos so it shows the registration on the rear reg plate. On the back or a blank area of each photograph write:
I certify that this photograph is a true likeness of Vincent (enter model here)
Engine number…… (enter the number)
Frame number…… (enter the number)
Date…… (when photo was taken)
Sign…… (your own signature)
Failure to enter these details on each photo will result in the application being returned to you.
3. The proof linking the frame number on the headstock to the registration. This can be the old council issued green or buff logbook or an authenticated copy of the original issuing council’s registration archives if they still exist. For an old logbook the machine registrar will require the original document and can then make an authenticated copy for the DVLA and return the original to the owner. For council records, the original letter or proof provided by the council archives will be required, not a copy.
4. V55/5. This can only be partially completed as some areas are not relevant. Not all questions need to be answered. This form is available direct from the DVLA or can be downloaded. To get a copy see:
