If your ride has a catylitic? convertor fitted as standard equipment,
and you take it in for an MOT without it fitted,was thinking??- would'nt the tester know this and fail it?

There is no test for emissions on any bike/scooter, so no. They won't even know what they were looking for anyway!

Why do you think that I'm blanking off the air pump hole on the crankcase of my TKR2? It's because that also had a cat exhaust on it originally but now it has a sports pipe on it. You'll see the air pump on the front of the engine underneath.
