Hooray for sensibleness! I got a non sensible MOT tester / shop owner on
my Honda 90. Apparently, a little valve was stuck in the front forks.
Having rebuilt a lot of front forks, I know this was utter bull***,
designed to get part me from more of my cash.
My brother's VFR just failed it's MOT this week.
The list was:
Leaking fork seals (they're not - he'd just liberally coated everything
with WD40)
RH handlebar not straight (WTF?! - same place passed it for the last 2
years in the same condition).
There was another customer in the shop when they told him this, who
advised him to take it elsewhere. I say the same.
