May 17, 200719 yr Assuming that you are in the Uk, the first step will be to either get the certificate of newness or a letter from the importer/manufacturer stating the age of the machine. Once you have done that you can get it mot'd, then insured, then you can go to a DVLA centre to get it registered.
May 17, 200719 yr Have a look at Registering Classic Trials Bikes. You'll not need a dating letter for a 98, but instead will need a letter from the dealer/importer about Type Approval for road use (it would have been supplied with all the road kit originally)

This is why we can register bikes which don't conform to usual vehicle regulations.

May 23, 200719 yr There is a certain power to weight ratio for learner legal bikes. It basically means that you are restricted to a 125 and around 12bhp, I'm pretty sure the power to weight of a 270 Beta would exceed the maximum. There is something called direct access, which means that riders over 21 can learn on any bike, but I have a feeling you have to ride it with your instructor following behind with a radio link. Thank goodness I passed my test in the days of one guy at the side of the road with a clip board!
