no - went online to tax it last night only to discover its MOT has expired and the guy who MOT's my bikes has just flown to Mallorca for a weeks holiday............... bugger !

looks like a last-minute MOT, also still awaiting delivery of new rear sprocket (due Weds).

Hey Gk, don't let them rush you, plenty of time yet !!!!
My ride is still poorly, as soon as I cured the fueling issues - weak pump, degrading lines, sticky float valves, blocked idle yets, you name it I had them all and the fuel stopped pissing out all over the floor from the float vents , the coils and HT leads have started playing up.

Its on order from B&C in Lincoln - promised for Wednesday delivery.
And 2 rivets have come loose in the end cans, so they need replacing too.
Otherwise - all is well.
