To make sure your motorcycle is roadworthyThis was the right answer

An MOT checks specified safety and roadworthiness requirements at the time of the test. The rider remains responsible for the motorcycle’s condition afterwards. A journey to repairs or a pre-arranged retest is not permission to ride an unsafe motorcycle: it must meet minimum roadworthiness requirements. Do not ride with a dangerous defect; arrange safe transport instead.
