Test Date Pass advisories
15/8/2011 Yes No
My 17 year old Tourer failed yesterday (first time in three years) on heavily corroded rear ferrules and a slightly binding brake (which I suspected already; brake calipers often begin to seize up with age). The brake I know how to fix, but having never heard of a ferrule and even after having had it explained to me what it/they were, I ordered a pair of flexipipes from Eurocarparts with (hopefully) the said ferrules attached. DHL should get them to me in time for the return MoT next week (none in stock within a 20 mile radius). Advisories included a slightly off-colour front indicator (new bulb?), an almost illegally worn front tyre and a slightly corroded brake pipe.
