actually you'd be surprised, in order to pass an MOT all that bike would need would be a number plate holder, road legal tyres and a baffle in the race pipe

to meet construction and use regs it'll need a speedo and technically a chain guard

no need for any lights at all, we still use horse drawn carriages and hand signals over here:thumbsup:

yep, although for safety's sake i'll be installing a brake lamp, look at the size of the freaking caliper!!!! it's like twice as big as the one on my DRZ, and the bike weighs ~109kg with all fluids except petrol, should stop fairly briskly:eek:
