I think he said:
Cheers for the comments. I registered the yz last year.
If I decided to do it again, it would probably be a 4 stroke 450.
All I had to do was phone the dvla main office (You'll get the number on the dvla website)
They sent me a form, it looked difficult to fill out but it was just basically the information that you normally find on a bike log book.
Then I had to insure it on the chassis number and get it mot'd
To do this, I put a horn and legal tyres on it and also had to mess about with exhaust to try to make it less noisy.
Then I took the form, mot, insurance and I think it was £45 fee to get registered plus £15 for road tax.
After that, they gave me a date for a week later to take the bike across for a boy to look it over. This person took a picture of the bike, checked the engine and chassis number that was it ready to "noise up the roads"

Oh bless you, british bikers !
I just imagined driving a bike with NO lighting whatsoever to a german TÜV (our mot) station,
and causing multiple heart attacks for the "men in grey" (work coats) .
"Honestly, Herr Ingenieur, I will only drive it in daytime!"
I bet I would turn up in the papers the following day, as :
"Crazy two-wheeled tinkerer prevented from suicide !!" or so.
With all the rants going on about the state of your country,
sometimes maybe you don´t realize how good you got it in many ways,
and how much freedom, self-responsibility (and practical creativeness) you still can enjoy.
Cheers,

and riding in the dark had to be feared and avoided anyway...8-P???
