    Have one of these back lights but also have standard rear indicators, the guy at the MOT station said the rear light indicators alone would be a fail.

    I got one for my 2009 blade and had to change the resistor to stop them flashing to fast.

    If you get a motodynamic one everything is already done inside the unit so no need for resistors and as for the MOT I've had one of rthese lights on my previous 2 bikes and passed MOT no probs.

    Technically it should fail a MOT and could also attract attention from Mr plod as it was not Homligated with this set up. There is a set distance from brake lamp to indicator and the brake lamp can not double up as an indicator ( a bit like the yanks do ) , however , I too have a combined lamp also with additional indicators and have had no issues from plod or VOSA . I suppose it really depends on the MOT guy whether he ignores the lamp,race can,smallish plate,headlamp covers, HID system, rear seat with no pegs etc.
