One i fear i know the answer too, the lower yolk on my sp370 has a cut running along its length, like someone's had to remove a bolt by force, i figured it'd be ok until i came across this section in a mot guide


Reason for rejection
1.
a. a fork assembly component which is missing, loose, cracked, or excessively bent, misaligned or corroded.

arse, think i need a new one now :blast What do you lot reckon :nenau

It's tigtened up to the specified torque without any problems.
 
id say its a fail, u could hide it for the mot, but really its a vital part of your suspension, not in a really bad place, i kno,,,but do you really wanna risk it?
u could weld, drill an re tap it, considering the rareity of parts?
 
figured that'd be the answer :D I just wasn't sure if mot man would pass it, just looked back through some of my build piccys. The gap has actually got bigger in the past week :eek: (i've taken lots of boring pictures throughout the build)

There's no way i'd ride it like that now even if you paid me. Also missing a rear reflector but thats small fry compared to this :D

'new' one on the way from fleabay :clap
