I received a Road Tax reminder for my 1955 Beeza this morning. Says 'THIS VEHICLE NEEDS AN APPROPRIATE MOT TEST CERTIFICATE'. Yikes, me thinks!
However, when I went on their website there was no mention of requiring a test and the renewal went through like a hot knife through butter with no charge. Lovely jubbly!
I sometimes consider doing a voluntary test but; a) it will cost money, and b) I have the ability to make sure my bike is roadworthy, and c) what if some prat decides to apply modern rules to my old bike? I was once told when I presented my 1929 Austin Seven for test that I must have some features that actually were not on the car originally; such as dipping headlamps, indicators, possibly even seat belts FFS!
