The tyre is not yet at the wear marks and I knew it would pass. There is still about 500 easy miles left in it and at this time of year I'm not going to be using it much so why shell out on a new tyre that's going to spend the next three - four months mostly in the garage? So I've got dosh left in the pocket to do other things. After the leaves and the winter is over I'll then puchase new rubber front and back.
The advisory is issued to let you know that something is on it's way out but still legal and safe to use. If not it's a fail. Nothing else is wrong with the bike. As I said it was the most thorough MOT the bike has had. Plus if there was anything else wrong with the bike that would have caused it to fail the test then I would have rectified it before hand.
Touch wood. I've never had a bike fail an MOT test in thirty four years of legal riding. Even the free ones.

Some say that he eats habanero chilli peppers dipped in oil of capsaicin for extra bite and that his pyjamas are made from Nomex. All we know is, he's called Ad the Bad
