    With Lucas electrics the reflector was a life saver. When the tail light crapped out one night, as it invariably did, the reflector was all that stood between you and some arsehole car driver. Unless said car driver saw the reflection of all the chrome studs in you leather jacket.
    Not for nothing did the old phrase go "Joseph Lucas - Prince of Darkness"
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.

    Arrow I understand about seatbelts.

    But if a lense if failed because it has no "stamp" on it but still is as good as the original part I do no. If the lense i missing a reflective component then yes fair enough. However I've just checked some of the other bikes for aftermarket lenses. My CB400f2 has all original parts. The aftermarket lenses I looked at all had the standard marking on them. Hence I suspect that they will not be effected by the new WOF ruling.
    Those who insist on perfect safety, don't have the balls to live in the real world.

    Actualy none of my Triumphs ever had any electical problems that didn't start because of something I did.
    Four of em' an never a blown light.
    Carb's on the other hand were a Ferking nightmare.
    Anyway back to the subject at hand.
    I take my bike to a guy that asks me if the verious bits work,I say yes an he gives me a warrent.
    I know my brake lines,exhaust,taillight would fail at a Gov't MOT station so I just don't go to them.
    To easy really.
