If the bike has broken down then it is no longer a motor vehicle with regard moving it.
No helmet and no licence needed either.

[size=1em]Not sure on that one BB [/size]
[size=1em]You get caught with your car in a car park with the keys in your pocket and your pissed you will still be done for being under in influence in charge on a motor vehicle. If you have the keys you are in charge of the car, it is the same offence as driving whilst pissed. The assumption is that you would drive the car because you have the keys. People when they are pissed out of their brains think they are fine to drive and do.[/size]

[size=1em] Anyway that is my understanding, Happy to be corrected.[/size]

I would imagine you are still in charge of a motor cycle if you have the keys with you. if it is on the road it has to be taxed and insured with a current MOT, same as have a vehicle parked outside you house on the road must be legal.

I'd argue about it needing mot and insurance to be pushed along the road. especially as a non runner.
Pushing Superdream400 for a few+ miles fully kitted in waterproofs results in weight loss and an appreciation of petrol station conveniences. Helmet or no helmet
