How could you say such a thing? !!!

They probably fell off BEFORE Tony got to the MOT test centre!!!!!!!!

I thought he just dropped it off at the centre in a bag.

To be fair to the MOT station.

When Tony dropped the bike off for it's test, there was not a lot for them to check in the 1st place!

I like that also Tony.

Looks like a bike that you could have a LOT of fun on.

Well done Tony

Ignore those negative comments

I know it was all down too good preparation from you, nothing more than I would have expected

Unfortunately, Tony left his other bike outside and was a bit slow in getting it ready for the MOT.
The result was this:-

Best to keep an eye on the tyres also (may let you down at high speed)

That central rubber strip around the circumference appears to be nailed on!!!

Now what idiot tested that on the river and I assume the propulsion was via the low slung 'jet' exhaust (or was it for just crossing boggy ground)?

Mind you.........

With this cold weather snap at the moment, it's probably a good idea to get a nice warm cover for the whole bike!
