How to avoid an Motorcycle MOT fail


One million motorbikes undergo the MoT test each year and each year 20% fail. We do better than car owners, where the failure rate is over 40%, but we could do better.

Here’s how to avoid failure with our simple pre-MoT check routine.

If you use a bike on the road without an MoT, you can be fined up to £1,000. In most cases, your insurance will be invalid.

The only times you can ride without an MoT is on the way to a pre-booked test or on the way to a place where the bike is booked in for repairs.

Top Causes of Failure:
Lights and signaling – 10.8%
Brakes – 5.2%
Steering and suspension 4.5%
Wheels and tyres –3.5%
