You should notify the dvla yourself.

Thought I had replied at the time.
Sorry to hear of the theft, any video evidence of the theft to pass on to the police to catch the thieves?
As for notification to DVLA, you want to be registered as the bikes keeper incase it reappears as someone applies for a v5

TLDR - The police inform DVLA on your behalf so you may get a tax refund if there's any left over. You don't have to inform your insurance so if it is subsequently found it will still belong to you and not the insurance company.

Reported the theft to the police, have a crime number. Insurance runs out today, so I'm not going to claim, with the massive excess and a cheap bike I'd rather have the NCB. Do I need to do anything else? Notify the DVLA? I guess the police will do that?
