MOT success

#1 Post by fatboy » Sat Feb 01, 2014 4:29 pm

Had a worry that my HID headlight may be an mot fail, read/heard somewhere that the light pattern is not quite right with an HID, not so !
Tester was a little worried about tipping the bike up on the Busa stand cos he thought 'looked a bit odd'
I told him its fine,when he came back with my pass he said 'That stand is solid mate' so good bit of fettling by Griff.
Did get an 'advisory' on the SL Carbon cans, think he may have had a hangover, big pussy
Cleverly disguised as an adult !

Great news fatboy. My mot tester is a biker himself. He still has his FS1E from when he was 16 years old. He told me my cans sounded "Nice".
But did comment they were way too load. That said he passed it saying that I will only change them back from the standard cans if he told me to go away and come back with them fitted.
He laughed and just gave me the mot certificate. :smt036

The tester said "its a credit to ya mate,,,,ive always fancied a go on one of these".
"off ya go" i said......

Came back like a little boy who has just eaten his first packet of space dust....
"oh my f**king life" he said......That has got to be the most stooooopiiddd thing ive ever been on.....

LOVE IT. :smt020
