Well. The GPX of doom failed its WOF
Want to guess why?

For clues, I'll tell you first why they didn't fail it.
They didn't fail it because the exhaust and pillion peg bracket is held on by cableties
They didn't fail it because the rear brake lever is held together with knead-it
They didn't fail it because the windscreen is smashed off.
Or because one of the front forks is weeping (my bad)
Or because when you put the bike on the centre stand the rear wheel is still on the ground. (Due to new, longer shock)
Or because the front tyre is really marginal.
Or the lack of Chain guard :P (Still need to find it)
Or because the rear brake doesn't turn on the brake light.
Or because none of the lights that light up the speedo and tacho work.
Or because the rego is still the one from February this year (Forgot to replace it/look for it)
Or because the right hand indicator has obviously been crashed on

The failed it because my "Front Mudguard" was wobbly.

Number plate not on or upside down?
No number plate light or rear reflector?
Does it matter? sounds like you have a list of things to make compliant anyway.

If ya werent in Jafaland you coulda used my ST4 mate
No CCrating shows ANYWHERE on the bike not even the rego tag (yet my mates says ST4916 mine says ST4)
:lol:

I sat my restricted/full test on an RD350 that the badges were removed from LOL
(25 years ago December)

Post orofice - if you can prove your identity and whatnot, they'll issue you a new one.
BTW - the rear tyre being on the ground when the centrestand is used is irrelevant. Mine's like that too.

If it's within 24hrs of the license test, you can't get your money back when cancelling or rebooking.

Well hopefully the lesson has been learnt that when welding things to motorcycles it is a good idea to first remove the fuel tank >< (Then again, I think that GN was special case and the sidestand was really the least of its worries...)

Congrats on getting your restricted.

Now you won't need to worry about fixing your GPX........... just go get a bigger bike - and get someone else to do the repairs to it :killingme

all good provided there's an ample supply of walls/trees to lean it up against!

I would say to just leave it on it's side but then the fuel might leak out the bike would lose half it's value:niceone:

Hmmm. Whose RVF was leaking fuel out all over itself while it was standing upright? And continued to do so until a phonecall was made to a certain unnamed pirate begging for a loan of some spare parts? And how much did you spend buying this leaky bike? :Pokey:

Well duh Andrew, the GPX is far too leet for just one stand so they put on a centrestand too. ;)
