  1. I apologise for the inconvenience, but I would like to understand why the car is not roadworthy if you were only made aware of the issue by the SOTA update? The dealer is currently unable to do anything to address the issue if the necessary part is on back order; thus, they have offered a November date.
  2. I upgraded the exhaust system on my SV650. The initial aim was to fit it and then remove it for each MOT. You get what I mean; well, riding a bike makes things simpler, but still. Anything is possible when one is determined.
  3. I'll give you an example: https://themotorbikeforum.co.uk/topic/50868-aftermarket-exhaust-mot/
  4. Basically, it's a game of cat and mouse. With a massive underground economy, the authorities are frantically trying to catch up. However, the trade in unlawful modifications will persist so long as there are individuals ready to purchase and others wanting to sell.
  5. If you are prepared to forfeit one of the dash vents, you might install a gauge in that location.
  6. If the seals in question are the valve seals, then the cylinder head must be removed; nonetheless, I do not understand the necessity for a head skim. Simply explore a few alternative garages.
  7. We anticipate nothing less, InsigDriv3. The vehicle is a testament to your efforts, my friend.
  8. It is essential to have the callipers inspected. Authentic Mercedes-Benz components come with a two-year warranty; however, demonstrating that the issue originates from the disc or calliper may prove challenging.
  9. I am curious to discover the outcome of covering it.
  10. Alarm What is the car's mileage, and have the oil cooler seals been replaced? Completing the SF motor would render it imprudent not to replace the seals, as it requires but a few bolts and an additional 20 minutes of effort beyond the initial 10.
  11. There is an echo in this space, amusingly.
  12. The pistons are identical; the N18 has direct injection, while the N16 and N12 use port injection.
  13. I can get 70 miles per gallon using that strategy in my 1963 vehicle. Maintain a consistent velocity on the freeway and reset the odometer. Apologies, but that is not an authentic figurine.
