Good Job! Now after plunking down your £27.15 you are entitled to get your tax disc! I understand that agracultural machines are exempt from MOT. I wonder if this would fly?

I've got Bimbo2 booked in for MOT tomorrow lunch time, and fingers crossed she should sail through.

That's Jan B.'s bike, isn't it?  He wrote a ride report that showed up in the most recent edition of Airmail, and it sounds like he may be getting bored with people telling him they didn't know John Deere made motorcycles.

Well Bimbo2 passed its MOT, and is now wearing a nice new tax disk which keeps us legal for another year.

Bonzo's R65RS also passed its Manx test 2 weeks ago. Similar to an MOT but a tad more stringent as it only happens once! (when you bring a vehicle over to the island)

No more MOTs to worry about  ;)

Mine did a bit of trimming on a hedge once.   :o  Well, not so much trimming as taking out a few unwanted branches.   ::)
