Nah, it's not true at all, they've messed up the numbers (deliberately or not, who knows). 125cc tax is frozen next year at £15, and 150-400 is going up by £1 to £33, they've mixed the two together to get this "double".
Please no one else sign up!

I didnt think it was true, as I couldnt find anything to back it up.
But if it was it may have been worth signing.

It's all peanuts anyway, compared to the grand it'll cost me to tax and insure the car next year.

My point is that 60-odd quid to insure a big bike is still pocket money compared to other running costs.
