    I was advised that the horn has to be a 'constant' sound, had a bit of trouble with a runner a while back with a dodgy button, it would work if you just pressed and let go but if you held it it would go on and off!

    Its not a fail in itself but they might be a bit arsey as obviously they need some way of keeping it upright

    Same, does the bike have to start off the electric start or does it just have to start and run ?

    it dont matter how the bikes started as long as they can start it to do the test. I took my 1000 for the MOT the other year and the battery went flat at the test station. I just bumped it for the tester and then let him carry on with the test...passed no probs....then i bought a new battery when I got home
