Beware the Insurance Companies - most of the rogues will do anything to avoid paying out. Seek confirmation from your insurance company that you are covered for the circumstances you describe.

Train Waiting

I agree that it is legal to ride to a reasonably convenient location for a MOT test.  I have done it many times with untaxed vintage motorcycles.  Normally, these would not be taxed over the winter.  Likewise, after a restoration or rebuild, which could take a while.

I agree - always go for an experienced motor cycle MOT centre.

As ForumFriends have said, a minimum of third party insurance is a must but you already have that.

I used to ride from the MOT centre to the Post Office to tax the machine!

Happy riding!

The Table-Top Railway is an attempt to create, in British 'N' gauge,  a 'semi-scenic' railway in the old-fashioned style, reminiscent of the layouts of the 1930s to the 1950s.

Problem solved. Guy from the bike shop came out to me in his car, donned crash hat and gloves, took the bike for its MOT and came back not much more than an hour later. All for the sum of £49 :D
