1st time ive had the 748, took it to john and have to say fantasic service and very helpfull!! to mines a 2002 which normally suffer with the rockers, mine needed none!!! but all the valve clearences where way out, he did a load of other bits for me as well feels like a completely different bike. just got to get it mot now, so does anyone know anywhere in liverpool that doesnt mind open pipes??

A non loaded question like,

" am I wasting my time taking my brand X pipes off my bike before I bring it in for MOT"

doesn't back anyone into a corner, best done in person at the testing station before you take it in.

The regs for MOT have changed as long as "not for road use" or "race use only" is not visible on the cans you should be OK.

cool the gianelli (spelling) pipes but have no markings on them, the markings are on the plates but have never been riveted on

.....alternatively from above.....join the DSC club, get a roundall and I'm sure someone local will lend you some std ones for the mot if you cant find a station!! or get some DB killers - as long as they arent stamped not for road use or race use only, and are not toooooo loud, you should be ok. Failing that, get it done at an official Ducatii dealer - how could they ever fail it?!

ive got std cans as well just to save the messing of swapping them over although i probably just do it.
