Another MoT sailed through

MoT Time (mandatory Ministry of Transport annual safety check). The only advisory was that the rear brake pads will need replacing by the end of the summer.
Aide, the owner and mechanic of Mantra Motorcycles, which is next to Kingsholm RFU stadium in Gloucester, also changed the front foot-pegs for me as I couldn't remove the circlips that hold them in place.
He also did a service, which is costly but it's going to be with a Harley Davidson bike, but he does do a thorough job, replacing the primary drive oil as well as the engine oil.
Always good to have a vehicle pass the MoT examination, and today I got the bus into town, and had a ride back on the bike. :-)
Edit - You may notice the panniers are missing. I took them off a couple of days ago to clean the back end, and the panniers. Decided to leave them off for the service as I thought it would make it easier for Aide, although he has a bike lift that brings it up to eye level anyway.
