Dvla wouldn't give bike tax on a bec!

Well I've just been to my local dvla office to put the application in to get my car registered and they refused to give my motorbike tax on my bec and instead did it in the low end car tax bracket which is around 130 for the year.

Now I always thought bec got motorbike tax but no matter how much I argued the case they would not do it.

Anyone else had this trouble or know the ruling on this? I'm thinking of ringing Swansea and see what they say

No, car tax for cars, bike tax for bikes, for kits its based on engine size, not engine origin.
