Daylight Mot's

[Deadskin]

My KLX will be 3yrs old soon i can't be bothered to fiddle around with dipped
beam switches so i've taken the front and rear light off as putting tape across
the lenses isn't allowed
I've got a horn and the tyres have mst written on them,
so is there anything else

I believe that to have a daylight mot the bike must have none of the relevant wiring switches etc fitted. Check with the tester first as some interpret the book differently

Here is a link to the MOT tester manual.
It does state when you open up the lighting section about daytime only use.
You may need a stop light.

Passed

Just a couple of loose spokes tightened and a little round reflector
stuck on the number plate

I was expecting something written on the test certificate stating tested w/out lights but it's not

Out of the crate they have a plate tab welded onto the end of the can and a restrictor on the carb to stop the throttle being opened any further than one quarter turn. That no doubt means it is able to cruise by on noise emissions They come as standard with indicators and a trail style lamp and vertical No plate holder. They also come with mirrors

No pretence at being able to carry a pillion tho
