Rolling Eyes

I know, I;m terrible but my bike has it's MOT tomorrow.

I read, perhaps off this forum, that if the bike is equipped with pillion footpegs then it must have the pillion seat? Or was it the other way around?

If so, my bike has a solo seat cover (and I don't have the seat yet). Is it adviseable I remove the pillion footpegs?

Cheers

EDIT - Please don't link me to MOT sites, I can't find it on them, unless you have found the answer somewhere.

IIRC - If you have a pillion seat then you need rear pegs.

Remembered the reflector, it was stuck to the number palte and didn't raise an eyebrow.

I, however, did not have a number palte light or any form of clear light shining onto the number plate. All he did was give me a sheet saying I should sort these things out. Glad he doesn't know about it to be honest. Smile

Hmm, pretty sure it'll pass to be honest, only thing they could possibly bitch about is that the clutch cable does get in the way when turning the bars to the left but it is VERY minimal, you can just hear it stretching a little.

Hardly something that you can really fix though I mean, it's not like winky head bearings where the garage would be glad to fail it on the MOT to get the work done if you know what I mean.

Pretty sure it'll pass. Need to find somewhere to do it, rather not haldanes to be honest.
