What did you do to or for or with your Laverda today?

Got new TÜV today - still gives me sweaty palms every time, because of those memories of old, of grey coated rivet counters. No reason to worry nowadays - the unregistered Wilbers shocks didn't register and the broken rear brake light (from disuse, I guess, but was still working when I left home) just elicited a "Guess you'll have to fix that later"....
Yeah,

We'd have had to face the firing squad back then with some of the stuff that's simply waved through these days. ;)

For the first time in over 40 years of having the privilege of only needing to deal with a TÜV inspector visiting the workshop I worked at, the GTL needs to be presented this month at an official testing station, really looking forward to all the moaning and bitching. :rolleyes:

I am so glad we don’t have German style TUV, or the daft rules or coppers with guns. I only have one bike that needs an MOT ( the rest are deemed too old to need one!) one bike that needs road tax ( the older ones are free! ) and my local copper is like is like an extra from a Will Hay film- you could bribe him with an ice cream. In fact most people where I live are like extras from a Will Hay film coming to think of it..
MOT man builds choppers for a living so you can imagine what a stickler he is for the rules.
