You need to do your homework first before making such assumptions. Motorcyclists account for 2% of road users in Ireland. So as much as you brits would like us to suffer as much too, I just can't see it happen because there would be a savage loss in setting up and maintaining MOTs in Ireland for bikes and getting the skilled people to do it. Jeez...I'm living in the 2nd biggest city here, and there is not a qualified mechanic (on paper) in it!!!
You see...it just supports my view on MOTs. If MOTs was all about safety, it would have been set up here years ago regardless of the 2%. But this is all about making cash....and they would lose their hole, so its a no-no for now.
