Never S.O.R.N.E.D. before??

[goferit 0]

Can someone advise me please, I've been told that when SORN is registered with the DVLA, the vehicle has to remain insured , even though it's not on the road... Is this really the case?.
Thanks.

Thanks for the response Noz, but I still don't see any mention about insurance?
I've looked up this page before, that's why I was asking, someone wiser than meself..
It was the insurance people who told me I would still have to keep the bike insured...new ruling she said??

Must admit I tend to keep the insurance running. Helps get the "no-claims" accrued, and, as Stue11 says above, in case some thieving little scrote decides he's going to try and lift it

THANKS every-one--appreciated ..

I've recently bought a 2nd bike that was on SORN, I've completed the new redg, etc. Also I have insured it as a precaution, mainly to protect against 'SCROTES': but wont be on the road till spring; as you pointed out, it will accrue ncb and I get peace of mind....But the girl at the insurance led me to believe it was compulsory..
