Why bother with tax, insurance, and MOT then?

Every time a car is behind you. They have in-car ANPR now.

MOT takes 15 minutes, not worth the hassle!

got another one, my colour change will be going through during the time i want the MOT so i wont have the V5 and my old certificates show the colour as blue, the bike obviously will be sat there a different colour. Will that matter?

No, I doubt it.

Never noticed colour was on MOT certs before.

or have they changed?

I was stopped by Police for no tax disc in the car when I was going for an MOT. So should I not have stopped for them?

Yeah I just edited my last post after going to look at my MOT.
Defo don't need a V5 or old MOT because it's all computerised now innit
