MOTing an off roader - are indicators required?
I'm looking to import my old XR600R, it's road registered in Holland, and has lights etc but doesn't have indicators, are these needed in the UK to pass an MOT? The bike is early 90's if that is of any relevance.

Re: MOTing an off roader - are indicators required?
IIRC if it has the switch then the indicators need to be there - if no switch then no problem.

No need for indicators or mirrors. Even if there is a switch, they do not have to be fitted. If they are fitted they need to work, that is the only stipulation AFAIK.

If you got no mirrors make sure you haven't got any pillion pegs fitted to the bike too.
