Back tyre fail.
The bike was jammed in the garage, it was miserable outside (snowing), I just got home on Sunday, I am nursing an Achilles tendon/ Gastronomical muscle injury and can hardly walk or stand so I only checked the lights were good.
The tyres were good last time I was out on the hoowur last August too.
Tread was en-tyre-ly missing from a large bit of the centre band. £170 for a new tyre.
I am now legal and ready for weather. Bring on the Summer ya bastirt. ____________________ Disclaimer: The comments above may be predicted text and not necessarily the opinion of MCN. |

Scope of Examination
The MOT Test does not allow for any stripping or dismantling, except for the removal of panels or covers, designed to be easily removed without the use of tools, where it is necessary to allow the examination of an item
I guess if you can get the seals out with your fingernails, it's fair dinkum.

Vosa are a toothless spineless pathetic organisation, unless they happen top be picking on you, mot testing station or not.
They have a "bottomless pit" budget, there words not mine.
They can shut a testing station down and remove the testers license at the drop of a hat for:
Passing too many vehicles.
Failing too many vehicles
Test performed in the wrong order
Test too strick
Test too lienient
Testing station "portraying the wrong image" to the public.
Tester can go to prison and many have !!!
If you do not check your bike over before an MOT, and attend to stuff that you ( YOU !!! ) consider unable to pass a test, they you are a moron.
A sticky throttle !
A worn disc too thin when the minimum dimension is stated on the dam thing.
Lights that don't work and a Feabley quite horn !
Tyres with cuts and worn out.
The MOT TESTERS MANUAL is on line ffs for all to see.
Sometimes its the bike owners and riders that need testing !
I my humble opinion, MOT TESTING should not be in private business hands.
A local farm is an MOT TESTING STATION ffs !!! What does that say ?
However, when oklder bikes and cars become MOT and TAX exempt, I will cheer !! but still have my bike MOT TESTER by a testing station, rather than relying on my own personal judgement.
No bike or car failures or advisories ( that's a cop out, it either passes or fails ! ) for the past 35 years + ____________________ nuts about bikes |

Old Thread Alert!
