Thanks, is the form available to download and if so what is the form number or code please. Steve

 

Steve, the 5 digit code is unique for each insurance company licensed to sell policy's in Florida. If you have Progressive the code is 02960. I have USAA on my trucks and their 5 digit code is 02865. It should be on your Policy. Also each county in Florida has a tax collector who you have to do this with, it is not a Florida State type thing as with other States that have State Division's of Motor Vehicle Agency (DMV). Also, if you do this on line your going to have a lag time to get your new plate or decal. Since yours is expired if you go in person you walk out with what you need.

 

Thanks everyone off this morning to get my tag (hopefully) Steve

motorcycle do not require insurance in florida..only insurance required would be if not using a helmet or if there is a loan...bank would require insurance

 

Really? Not even liability insurance? I thought the whole country had bought into that one. It galls me that I'm forced by "law" to buy insurance but it is what it is. If the bank is involved, that's a different deal. They have a right to protect their investment.

Texas requires liability insurance for any vehicle licensed for the street regardless of how many wheels it has. If you want to ride without a helmet, you have to be over 21 (I think, might be 18) and you have to provide proof of "medical" insurance. I've not heard of that one being enforced too much so far in terms of ticketing but I'm sure they'll use it to hang you out to dry if they get the chance.

Ride Safe,
Steve R.

 

OK strange story about this, when I purchased the bike in June 09 from a dealer in Kissimmee they registered the bike for me but got my Birth date wrong being from the UK we use the day/month/year format and my birthday is in April so it should have been 4/10 not 11/09 so they sorted that out for free and I paid for a year $41 so now its where it should be 4/11. Sorted.
