Joe, i'm sure you can ride it without the log book.... if the bike is taxed, the dealer must have registered the bike with the DVLA... i ridden LOADS of new bikes before receiving it and i sure will be riding my new 961 in september before i receive it.... my local multi franchise dealers always show foto's of new bikes being ridden off from their premises.
 
I guess you already have a number plate fitted? If so why not enter in in the DVLA search and see if it's already in the system? If it is you are good to go.

Get vehicle information from DVLA

Check a vehicle's details, tax and SORN status and expiry dates on the Driver Vehicle and Licensing Agency (DVLA) database - online and telephone enquiries

They shouldn't let you take a new vehicle without tax and insurance, for yours and their benefit.

It’s not the dealership fault it’s because they all take 3/4 weeks to be put on the dvla system it’s not registered till you check with dvla or on there site you cannot ins the bike because it will show up as not registered phone factory they will tell the same or any dealership

Don’t worry I did it’s registered now today taken 3 weeks it’s not like buying a mass produced bike or car they have to pass a sva test then send it all to dvla to deal and wait for them to clear it

You guys have some weird laws.
Here, we get the registration and permanent plate the day of purchase from the dealership.
That’s how it was at my local ducati and triumph dealer within the last 8-12 months.

If not, then the dealer gives you a 30-45 day temporary license tag until your paperwork shows up in the mail. Then you can take it to the license bureau to get the permanent license plate.

Either way, you ride your bike / car the day you take delivery.

If it's a "Normal" bike it's quick over here TBH, but as the 961 hasn't passed all the new tests it has to go through the SVA system I think.

AFAIK it's only available in the UK because of that.

I went down my local dealer for a test ride, the bike was there, but they'd been waiting weeks for the registration.
