Motorcycle tyres and wheels — 2.2% of failures

Motorcycle tyres and wheels issues account for 2.2% of MOT failures on the Kawasaki Vn 1700 Bcf Voyager Abs.

Typical repair costs: £50–200 per tyre. Pre-MOT check: Check tread depth with a 20p coin — if the outer band is visible, the tyre is too worn. Look for bulges, cuts, or embedded objects. Ensure all tyres match the recommended size and load rating.

Motorcycle lamps and reflectors — 2.2% of failures

Motorcycle lamps and reflectors issues account for 2.2% of MOT failures on the Kawasaki Vn 1700 Bcf Voyager Abs. Lighting failures cover all external lights: headlights, tail lights, brake lights, indicators, fog lights, and reflectors. A single blown bulb will cause an MOT fail. This is one of the most preventable failure categories. Typical repair costs: £5–50.
