    There is a place in london (Fusion motorcycles) that lets you do a CBT renewal. It's cheaper than usual at £60 and you go straight onto the road, ride around a few roundabouts, do an emergency brake, a U turn thing, back to the centre and get your certificate.

    We did the whole thing in an hour. Not sure how legit the center is, but the issued certificate is 100%.

    Saves some time and money if you're near london next time around.

      Finally got it taxed and went out on it today, lots of smiles all round, handles great even on those knoblies and pretty damn quick, got 75 out of it down a straight riding against the wind, but it's the getting there that's the most fun bit, can't wait to get a decent pipe on it!! :DD

        @Burridge What pipe you deciding on?

        I did enjoy the power from the DEP. Just accept it'll rust like no tomorrow, but will hold its value.

        It's a damn lot lighter than the stock pipe too!

          @Calum one of Romeu's stainless pipes hopefully, and I've got a dep off eBay for £40 just waiting for it to arrive, it's been welded at the flange and generally looks abit shagged but I bought it for the end can which I'll polish up and put on my new pipe when I get one.
          If it's structurally sound then I'll put it on for abit though! Otherwise just the can on standard pipe until the time comes 🙂

            The eBay Dep came today, the pipe itself is quite sorry for itself, got a gaping hole in it which I'll attempt to weld up as I've got a little mig welder but I don't have much hope for it seeing as the Coke can sheet metal that it's made of is so thin and rusted;
