Default reflector on numberplate for MOT

not SV specific but my mate needed a reflector on his KTM Adv plate to pass his MOT - I have seen this on cars before but thought it was just for imports. Shouldnt all UK spec bikes have rear reflectors?

yes but when you take of the SV's huge snow shovel of a tail end you also loose your reflector.
hence i have a little round stick on one on my plate.
