These bikes aren't made for practicality, after all they'll be parked up at the local hipster coffee shop 98% of the time
That is very, very nice though
You're not supposed to cancel it, the DVLA would do that when they process the new V5.
I've transferred it online but at the same time the new buyer has taxed it, it's now showing as untaxed.

You can do the send off the V5 online now?! 
Wen DVLA get notified there's a change of owner, they refund any remaining months to the previous owner, and the new owner has to tax it, if it's not showing as taxed the system probably hasn't updated - when did you transfer it over?
This is the triple you're talking about, or your new bike?

Ah, you had one job...
It does say on the DVLA site that it can take up to 5 days for MOT/tax/SORN to show on there.

Pick the 675 up the day I'm back off my holiday.
Go away on the 5th, back on the 13th with a new bike and possibly a new car on the drive.
Mrs wasn't happy that she didn't get anything so took me car shopping this morning. Days off are expensive.

I once said that I'd never have another Suzuki. But I think GSX-S1000 is going to be my next bike.
Usually I would agree, but why supercharge it then? Makes no sense to if its a casual hipster looker/ornament as you're never going to benefit from it LOL! It's just seems a waste of money, time and effort.

Because it's cool 
That's sort of the whole hipster/cafe racer scene, custom built bikes, some of them very cool - but built mainly for bearded tattoo'd blokes to look at
Don't get me wrong, I love some of the cafe racer style bikes, but the whole 'scene' is a bit too much for me. I can't grow a beard, don't have any tattoos, and don't own any lumberjack shirts, so...
