Flew through this am.... the first since I bought it, sweat over, now it's got 12 months mot and new tax...roll on the summer !!!

nice one mate

funny how the word M.O.T. puts fear into people

Hi Gary, You bet mate !!!! esp when it's the first one, and you havn't even lifted the wheels off the ground..
Got an "advise" that the headrace bearings will need some attention soon, but hey...I can live with that, esp as it's a 96...could have been a lot worse

took my car in this morning
only 21 years old , big sigh of relief when they said it passed.
i only had to fit front brake pads & a cv boot.

bike is due at the end of july , but should be ok

Ahh CV boots, b***dy things, funny how propshaft uj's never needed boots on em ??

Good luck sprocket......I normaly put mine through a week or so early, just so there's no pressure if it doesn't pass, and as long as you take your old mot with you, they'll date the new one from the "run out" date of the old one.........

Does a guy called Jamie work there ?? He was recomended as a good bike mechy to me by a guy from the "Roadhouse"

Dunno mark-blade
may not be the best looking of places,but you cant fault them for being helpfull and uber cheap to be honest
they say a price and it does nt change,which is hard to fund these days

Isn't it nice when it just goes straight through without a hitch. Especially as mine is a '92 model and the last time mine was tested was 11 months and 9,000 miles ago.
Now got 13 months MOT and 12 1/2 months tax and am a very happy bunny indeed !!!
