insurance motorcycle antique
antique motorcycles older than 25 years dont have to pay insurance?

Im sure i remember being told if a motorcycle is older than 25 years you dont have to pay out any insurance on it is that right??
By the way this is a w reg Honda CG 125 and living in the UK. Noticed alot of other countries use this site so thought id mention it.

Wrong. It MUST be insured.
You have got this mixed up with road tax.

Labour when they came into power scrapped the 25 year rule. Only cars and motorcycles built before the end of 1973 (L/M reg) are now entitled to “classic car” status and thus have free road tax. It still has to be applied for but doesn’t cost anything.

A W reg would not fall into this category so you will have to tax it.
W prefix was 1980.
