    Cycletreads do it for $30. At least that's what the sign said when I was there yesterday. They said they do it while you wait on Saturdays. Maybe give them them a call next time it's due

    Yeah but if the mechanics are in the middle of other jobs mate it's not like they can (or should) just down tools to do the wof there and then.

    If you tried to make me ride a blackbird I'd tell you to shove it up your arse!

    That works for me, book it in advance and they do it when you turn up, minimal wait.

    I love guys like this - ''No one rides my bike but me!!!!'' I don't have to ride a bike to do the WoF, but for these guys I always do...or it's no WoF. I should set up a video camera to record the huffing and puffing, all the posturing, it's just fucking hilarious!

    I like that bit the most...more so when it's a nice sunny day and I use the extended road test.

    I said I don't let plonkers ride my bike, there is a difference between someone who your gut tells you shouldn't ride your bike going to test ride the bike and someone who you can with a bit of common dog see will not do anything stupid. Now you may love guys like me, but we are the way we are for a reason. I work hard to earn the things I own and the hassle and lose lose situation of going through an insurance claim or having a written off bike is something no motorcyclists really wants.

    As for the huffing and puffing and posturing, I don't know much about that.

    Anyway, feel free to not read this reply properly either, I guess they can only make glasses so strong ..... I'm just joshing you...it's all fun and games.

    One of the reasons I take my bike to the local bike shop for its WoF rather than VTNZ. I know that when Neil takes my bike for a test ride he'll treat it with as much respect as I do.
