My NC30 failed its MOT today
-Front wheel bearings
-One of the headlight alignment
-And the handle levers catch on the clock
However, the first 2 fair enough, but correct me if I'm wrong, the clutch / brake levers catch at some point on full lock on all NC30's?
He said hes going to sort it out....I told him it was a normal thing....I'm wondering what to expect when I pick it up tomorrow.

Re: MOT Fail
My clutch lever also catches the clocks and it was brought up on its MOT. I only got an advisory for this though! Maybe I was lucky. But you can easily unbolt the whole brake lever and move it further up/down the handle bar so it doesn't catch the clocks for your MOT.
Good Luck!

Yes mate the clutch lever perch/cable guide definitely fouls the clocks as standard.DanHam wrote:t correct me if I'm wrong, the clutch / brake levers catch at some point on full lock on all NC30's?
Just adjust it so it doesn't (then adjust it back!).

Re: MOT Fail
Got it sorted, bill came to £77 in the end thats for sorting the lot.
He'd stuck some tape across my head light but I just had to stop about 1/2 down the road to take it off, it looked shit.
Hes adjusted my brake lever down, I think its probably better in that position, I can always adjust it up again.

If you take the nose-cone off the headlights are adjustable (theres screws to change the alignement) :)

Re: MOT Fail
Mine either. Unless you adjust the handle-bars and clutch too far in and then they do.banoffee wrote:my clutch lever doesn't foul the speedo
I don't think Honda would make a bike where the levers hit the clocks :S
They come close but you can deffinatly adjust them so they dont' foul.
