Clive Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 The day started wet, i almost said sod the Mot, but dried up around 9am, so game on!. Rode the 200 metres to the end of our Cul de Sac, and turned onto Jubilee Way, passing the many pot holes and discarded Mc. D wrappers and Costa coffee drinks containers, I also passed by such sites as the Tesco Express, and the Cuckoo Birch pub, carried on the 600 metres to the Oak Tree roundabout, turn left onto Eakring Road, passing by car corner (Peugeot and Suzuki dealer, and Evans Halshaw) which strangely never seems to have people looking at car on offer for sale. After 500 metres I turned onto the industrial estate where the testing station in located. The testing station is 1st come, 1st served, I had a hour wait till I was at the head of the queue. The tester approached me, I gave him a quick rundown on the Keyless ignition, and off he went, I watched from the viewing area, the location of the fuel filler had him foxed, it was easier for me to open it than try to explain the opening procedure. The test took all of 10 mins, resulting in a Pass with no advisories, which I expected. I did the retun journey home, the exact reverse of my journey to the station, all in all a nice hour and a half out of the bungalow. The ride as made me wish for a longer ride, so at the weekend I may go to Poundland in Mansfield!, bike/scooter parking is free there. So my wallet is £29 lighter, the mileage on the scoot has risen by 2 miles, and the temperature gauge did not rise off the C position.. Now that it has 1 years MOT do I (try) to sell it, or keep it.?. Yes I am 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering that we might get more ride reports as excellent as this, I say you keep it. Someone has to keep the standards up around here! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
