    Looking at a 125 hack for the winter "proper" bike but the guy has no V5,
    how much of a risk is this, ie whats the risk if i buy without one?

    Chances are it's dodgy i.e nicked. Walk away.

    Given that DVLA seem to have an average turn round time of less than a week
    these days on V5s (and 2 at most), if you *really* want it then he'll be
    able to get the docs in 14 days and *prove* it is what it says it is.

    If he can't or won't, note the ****'s address and burn his fucking house
    down next time you're passing..... Then again it prolly isn't his house
    either so wait *3* weeks and then take a ukrm "Hello Thieving ****" welcome
    team with you when you go to "Definitely buy" it... :)

    Wot the Wavy bloke said.

    Don't touch it, Paul. Don't believe a word he says, no matter how
    convincing he is or tries to be.

    He can get a V5 soon enough if he really has title to the bike, so
    bide yer time.

    Also, having had a V5 through the post recently, I was reading the gumph
    that came with it.

    DVLA are now stating that you will not be able to tax a vehicle if you
    don't have their reminder form or the V5. As the former goes to the
    registered keeper, you'd be screwed for tax.

    An ETS or TS or ETZ? Mucho big difference. If its an ETS 250 [1] email
    me.

    I don't think I'll be happy until I've owned every MZ on the fucking
    planet.

    [1] but you said up there ^^^ its a 125 . . . ?
