Post by: simon74 on August 30, 2010, 07:34:45 PM
hi all ,i bought a trike,ive had to send of for v5,as i bought it as deemed class b write off.
now sounds bad ,but in the light of day their isnt a thing wrong with it.
so if i need to rebuild it an they wont issue a v5 so be it.
its a virago 535,so now iam wondering as to get an mot on it.
to clarify work ive done on it ,if this helps i dont know.
i have contacted a few garages ,and one has said i need a weight certificate.
iam confused as to class of bike as an old mot, class it as 2 but ive been reading up.
trikes are classed 3.any advise appreiciated  ???

yes you will need a weight certificate for the mot and it will need a class 3 mot.(three wheelers).
