Got the H2B MOT'd a couple of days ago. Was real hard with those Denco's on. My local MOT guy is very thorough :D . Came to work on it today and met up with my oldest mate, H1F Rob. I had some plating done for him and he called into work to pick it up. ONE day he will come to a rally, WONT yer Bobby. Felt great to get back on the B but can understand why Vice Pearce's wife moaned about how loud those pipes are. Jesus, they are bloody loud. Gonna try and get off a bit sharpish from work, go for a ride and then a pint or 2 for St. Georges day.

I guess that sooner or later we'll get some kind of MOT too, but for now , if you have plates on your bike, you can ride it forever without having to have it checked. Cars are called in every second year though.

didnt see many old knackered vehicles on the road there mate, so guessing people want reliable cars when the hard winters come in :?:

That, and old knackered cars don't pass the test every second year. It's either pass the technical test or lose your plates.
