Well I have been to Halfraulds to get me a legal numberplate after my tail tidy incident (its f*****g massive)
Why am i dreading the MOT so much. I know my bike is sound cause i spend so much time looking after it.
Well i am donning my leathers for my 2 mile trip in the pouring rain and will report back later with the results
See you all soon.

Failed. Gutted.
Buckled rear brake disk.
Oh bad luck. Still, that's why they test them. I'd be happy that the problem was pointed out to me. There are more costly ways to fail an m.o.t too, so it could be worse.

:D (sorry had a little chuckle at the irony)
Good to get those kind of faults pointed out though, easy to miss if you don't use the rear brake much.

Just had the bike up on the stand and spun the back wheel. i cant see any sort of travel from side to side on the disc. i am going to take it of and get my mate to put it on the lazer level at work. the lazer is acurate to .01 of a micron. that should tell me if its out.
