Its almost that time of year again MOT time.

The only thing that definitely off it the headlights, and i've had a fiddle so that they aint as badly off.
But I'm wondering whats the best way to do it in a yard as it was difficult in daylight.

Its a curvy S for reference

Thanks in adavance

i always thought any good bike garages that do MOTs will happily adjust the lights to the correct position as long as no major work is required, ie get the farings off and blast the adjuster screws with your favourite lube prior to the MOT being done and all should be good.
