VM was founded by Tim Perry and although it has only been
up and running for a short time, it has already become
known as the Motorcycle MOT centre in Upton.
Mot Tests can be arranged at very short notice and we are
very flexible with times.

We are more than happy for you to watch your Mot Test
being done or you can just leave it with us and we can ring
you when it is done.

Our Motorcycle Mot Centre is located in Backfields behind
the shops in High Street and straight opposite number 44
Backfields.

Brief Mot Guide

This is just a very brief guide and is only intended for you to give
your Motorcycle a quick check over in the hope that your bike
passes first time and does not fail on
something simple. The full guide can be found by clicking the link
above.

LIGHTING

Make sure that all lamps are clean and lenses are not cracked, all lighting should be secure and clean.

HEADLIGHTS

Check the headlamp emits a WHITE or YELLOW light. Make sure the headlight is secure.
Headlight switches work correctly.

FRONT & REAR POSITION LIGHTS

Make sure the lenses are intact and do not show white light. Lights should not flash or be affected by the
indicators.

STOP LAMPS

These should emit a good steady red light. Stop lamps may operate in conjunction with either the front or
the rear brake, or both. On machines first used on or after 1 April 1986, the stop lamps must operate by the
application of each system.

REAR REFLECTORS

There should be at least one clearly visible and not obscured.

DIRECTION INDICATORS

In most cases indicators should only emit amber colour. They should flash between 60 to 120 flashes per
minute.

HEADLIGHT AIM
Clearly should be straight ahead and not to low or to high
