gee wizzz
A bit of a worry guys.I took the old XJ for a wof yesterday.
The wof guys were very particular about my indicator lenses having the standards marks on em and the exhaust having some international standards marks on it. Mine had the au standards aproval marks
I must admit its the testing station I visit at least once a day and they were piss taking the whole time BUT -they did know what they were looking for

Thing is, with an old bike, the stuff didn't have those markings anyway, even the standard kit.
And with bikes how likely is that a tester is going to know whether the indicators on your 1980 Wossiname 350 are the original ones or not. Let alone the silencers. Just tell him "That's what it came from the factory with mate. They didn't have all those markings and such back then. too long ago, hadn't been invented" (and with my luck I'd strike the one tester who was a classic motorcycle enthusiast and knew exactly what he was talking about)

I'd recommend Kerry from Motohaus - I don't recommend Mt eden for personal reasons....
ask around a lot of people here recommend Kerry
If it's for a cage give Motu a call.
gee wizzz
ya might get away with it --then again the tester could be an asshole andsay --sorry sonny -hese the rules-No standards marks on the lenses no WOF.
The rule actually does exist--caused by the flood of cheap car tailights thhat fairly quickly faded to white and shone white light at the rear of the car.
Id suggest theres no need to panic yet but my point is at least those particular testers knew the rules

Wow, for example what happens if you are sold the bike with an aftermarket exhaust (from dealer, first NZ owner etc)? it must be on grounds for an excemption as on VIN they get an WOF inspection dont they?...
