[Tattoo Artist]

will a bike fail an mot for having a tiny hole in the exhaust? also does anyone know wether nissin master cylinders are standard on the rgv250

[Whosthedaddy]

It should fail for a leaking exhaust system. Get some exhaust repair tape and bodge it.

got some of that metal repair stuff, and it seems to work but there is a tiny ( i mean minature, smaller than a pinhead hole where black shit is coming thru, very tiny amount tho, just need to get it thru mot soon but the new spanny chamber is gunna take three weeks, apparently they cant just throw titanium together pfft

[Ichy]

Are you sure its not a drain hole to allow water from condensation out of the exhaust?

If its definately rust then you can almost guarantee that its worse than it looks try some exaust paste for the mot but be prepared for a replacement or get someone to put a plate on there.

got a titanium set coming.....and i have now bodged the holes up so we will see if she passes, also just put sum wavey discs on her and she looks feckin awesome

[Louise]

Shit it fails on a small hole!?
Great, mine is blowling slightly and can feel air comming out - But no black crap.
I paid for the last garage to bodge it up - He said he wielded it - BS

So gumgun or metal reapair?!
MOT is this Thursday

[Louise]

Just looked - about 5 pence peice hole. GumGun or metal repair or tape?
MOT tommorow and dont want it to fail on something small.

[cheekythomas]

a 5p sized hole will mean it needs all of them probably... cover it with paste and then use some metal tape over the top to try hold it all together and ride slowly to the mot station.

If its the bandit in your signature, i assume its the join from downpipes to rear silencer connector thats gone...

The amount of them ive had to do in the past

[Louise]

This is what I dont understand. I only had it fixed less then 2 weeks ago. And yes, its the connector pic. Would I need to take the 'U'Bolt? off and refix it - or can I leave it on & work around it

[MarJay]

MY TZR250 passed with a blowing exhaust. It wasn't excessively noisy so it got through.

My KE100 failed the MOT, but it didn't fail on its blowing exhaust!

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

[Louise]

right well I patched it up the best I could. Oh how sweet it sounds now.
I had to take the jubalee clip off. Do I need to replace this for the mot?
Had a long day and canni be arsed to go get one

[Pete.]

So long as it's secure and not blowing you should be fine. If the clip is on there but hanging loose he might fail you for unsecure.

Well it failed on

Lights to low
Front break lever - too much had been snaped off.
So gave him another £15 on top to fix so passed

Only almost come off on some black newly painted lines on the roundabout on the way home

[Pete.]

Aah yes the ball-end mustn't be missing from the levers, that's a fail.
