posted elsewhere on OCuK but though it worth putting in here also.

The site now doesn't need the V5, so you can check any car or bike.
should show all mots on file, on my zr7 it showed 10 mots and the fails and what it failed on. great to see how the bike has faired over the years

Fascinating
I just checked the status of some of my old bikes and cars. Amazing to me that some are still going including my old GSXR1100WR.

Must remember to get a reflector when getting MOT done in November

gcaster · 15 Oct 2015 at 20:18

So between my bikes 1st and 2nd MOT it did a whopping 500 miles...
Such a waste!

hes a mean mot man to fail it on a silly rear reflector

I went through that stage on my 125's till I found a decent mot place

@gcaster use it or lose it

atpbx · 15 Oct 2015 at 22:11

My first 50, that I bought brand new in August 1992 when I was 16 carried on popping and farting away till 2013 according to the DVLA website.

Which is pretty good going considering.

And the transit I had in 2003 (DU03 GCZ) is still going today, I let it go in 2005 with 60k on it.

That's a shame, was hoping it would go way back, it's only got the two mots I've put it through though. Both passes with no advisories so a bit yawn. Nothing from the 70/80s

@Controller that's a lot of advisories lol

ConTRo13R · 16 Oct 2015 at 12:27

The front wheel scares me! And also the distorted front end???? Definitely was in a front end collision. Only one of those MOT's was mine :/

wazza300 · 16 Oct 2015 at 12:32

Yeah its had a whack at some stage,the wheel can be straightened out and the forks,

ConTRo13R · 16 Oct 2015 at 12:42

By the time it got to me there was a brand new wheel on it, i replaced the forks mostly out of laziness and it worked out cheaper than getting the seals replaced
