Hey guys and gals, i'm hoping someone can give me some help regarding MOTing a 98 Hornet with a micron can.

I've just picked it up today, and i must say its a great bike so far! but the one things thats worrying me is the micron can. It has 'not for road use' stamped across the back of it.

Is this due to the dB of it? If so, a popular auction site sells baffles, one company even custom makes them and is only 20 miles away from me. Would this be suitable to get it through? or will the stamp still make it fail?

I don't have access to the original can, i'm assuming its been MOT'd before with this can on but i cant be 100% certain (the previous owner never mentioned it, that may be lacking on my part for not asking.)

Thanks.
 
Thanks guys, exactly what i was looking for :)

EDIT: another quick question, is the heat shield from the standard exhaust needed for the mot?
