will it bugger fail , my NTV650 got through fine with an indicator lense smashed into tiny bits held together with gaffer tape.

and afterwards it (the bike) caught fire to boot as it was being ridden out of the MOT place.

I'ver had bikes pass with the indicators held on and together with gaffa tape so I can't see you having a problem assuming the tester isn't a wanker.


(although someone who uses this forum had his bike fail an MOT because his flashers "Aren't orange enough." Confused )

it's mostly up to the examiner.
if they're cool, then it shouldn't matter if the whole lens is off. if they're tight, they'll do it to a T and won't touch anything to help it pass.

with indi's and break lights, it's that NO white light should show through when the bulb's on.
although if it's a tiny amount and the examiner's cool he may give it an advisory.
