[QUOTE="Pete Appleton, post: 136966, member: 145"] It has all changed again. DVSA have just issued a special notice.... You can get those LED and HID kits back out of the bin. - Until next time. So long as your light is fairly white and there is a decent beam cut off, you should be alright. [B]2. Changes to current rules[/B] From 22 March 2021 we're changing these rules so that not all motorcycles and vehicles will fail the MOT test if their halogen headlamp units have been converted to be used with HID or LED bulbs. [B]Class 1 and 2 motorcycles[/B] Class 1 and 2 motorcycles must not be failed for the defect 'Light source and lamp not compatible'. Headlamps must comply with all other requirements of the test and headlamp aim. The motorcycle inspection manual will be updated shortly, and the ability to select the defect within the MOT testing service will be removed. [/QUOTE]
