Decor58 Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Ok so my MOT is due end of next month so I'm going to be making sure everything is in good working order. There are just a couple of things I'm not sure about and would like advice on.Last June I had a small off and damaged the exhaust, fairing and indicator.The rubber seal on the exhaust has been broken and the metal damaged, there is a very small amount of air that come out of the gap, would I be ok putting some sealant or something on this? Failing that is it possible to get a new seal? I don't want to have to buy a new exhaust but I will if I have to.I think the fairing is ok, it is mainly aesthetics there is no hole in it so I think it will be ok.The indicator case broke and I stuck it together with a little duct tape so it works fine, though I think it would still need replacing?Thanks for reading and any advice given.Fairing DamageExhaust DamageIndicator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I'd be guessing if I offered you any advice Decor m8, but I do have this info in my favouriteshttp://www.motuk.com/bike/menu.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decor58 Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 That's brilliant dan, only had time for a quick look but looks like the indicators will need replacing as the tape dose very slightly obscure the indicatorDoesn't seem to have anything on fairing or exhaust though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I'm led to believe, they cannot fail you if no air is coming out. So if you seal it well with putty, it should be fine... But it might look an eyesore on a stainless exhaust!Fairings i would have thought have nothing to do with the MOT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
