Not having one is a failiure, it not working is illegal, but not an MOT faliure

Again it comes down to the rules for MOT and police rules, which differ.

MOTORCYCLE SPEEDO
Does my motorcycle require a speedometer for an MOT?
If not what milage would the Tester put down on the VT20
or VT12? Phil
You will be pleased to hear that the speedometer is not checked in the MOT. The Tester would simply note that the motorcycle has no speedometer. -MOTT
FAULTY SPEEDO
The speedo on my 1994 Alfa 33 16 v 1.7 Sportwagon fails intermittently. Is a faulty speedometer an automatic MOT failure -
Mike Lock
The speedo is not checked for the MOT. -MOTT

Even tough they dont need to test if its working or not, they will tell you that its not working as they will do a front/rear brake force test on a roller and will notice that the speedo does not work.
