As others have already commented, if there is nothing wrong with your bike then any place will do.
If there is something wrong that you can't do yourself, then book it into a bike shop with the instruction "fix xxxx and WoF check". The fact that you have already identified a fault will help as they then know that you are out for a proper check and not just booking in because you have to.

That may well be Katman but we all know you are just another sucker for the system.
Right, well chaps I'm off for a blat on my not fit for the road-but wof'd and legal bike so that's all for now! See you fellas out there.
Cheers.

Having a WOF does not automatically mean it's legal.
If you get a WOF today, and then your brake light fails, that doesn't mean you are still legal for 6 months 'till the next WOF.
Measure once, cut twice. Practice makes perfect.

It's good enough for the cops though and keeps my 200 dollars safe and sound.

And that in a nut shell my fellow riders is the nature of the beast
Its a "tax" it is only for "suckers" and now my bike is legal and "safe" so there
On the plus side its not only zden009 who has this attitude. A lot of non bikers do too
Jeez Katman, I don't think even you will win this battle mate, but thanks for trying

Oh come on mate, as soon as my parts arrive my calipers are coming off and forks getting done. I'm really not that bad of a crook mate.

as long as you're onto it and fix that shit up as well as keeping an eye out for any new problems developing then yeh, a wof is pretty useless and going for easy ones is fine. But for people who aren't onto it then you should go to a decent bike shop as it'll keep your bike safe. Personally I got a few mods (actually make the bike a lot safer) that fall into a grey area with certing, so I take it to VTNZ cos they don't notice em, but in taking it there I know they aint too thourough so it's my respnosbility to keep her in a safe state!Haha what a crock of shit- sticking front brakes and leaking fork seal... VTNZ pass.
God bless 'em... VTNZ- RULEZ
Thanks guys.

Don't worry everyone, it's called natural selection.

Is it just my perception, or has the standard of trolling on KB dropped significantly lately?

Sadly, I think some of them are actually serious.

So changing subject slightly, Does the "dashboard" have to be illuminated for a WOF???

The instructions are simple...
Probably one of those things that should, but are never checked...I've never seen an inspector shield a dash to check the light/s, nor have I been able to find one who works after dark.
Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?
