If you own or are considering buying a 2009 Keeway Hurricane, budget for potential repairs before each MOT. Before your MOT, pay particular attention to motorcycle lamps and reflectors: Walk around the car and check every light — headlights (dipped and main beam), side lights, tail lights, brake lights, indicators, hazard lights, reverse light, rear fog light, and number plate lights. Replace any blown bulbs before the test. With relatively low average mileage of 6,134 miles, many of these vehicles are still in good mechanical condition.

Motorcycle lamps and reflectors — 2.7% of failures

Motorcycle lamps and reflectors issues account for 2.7% of MOT failures on 2009 Keeway Hurricane models. 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. Pre-MOT check: Walk around the car and check every light — headlights (dipped and main beam), side lights, tail lights, brake lights, indicators, hazard lights, reverse light, rear fog light, and number plate lights. Replace any blown bulbs before the test.

Identification of the vehicle — 1.8% of failures

Identification of the vehicle issues account for 1.8% of MOT failures on 2009 Keeway Hurricane models. Identification failures relate to the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and registration plate. The VIN must be permanently displayed and legible, and the registration plate must meet British Standard formatting. Typical repair costs: £10–50. Pre-MOT check: Ensure the VIN plate is visible and legible (usually in the windscreen or under the bonnet). Check that number plates are clean, undamaged, and use the correct font and spacing.

Look for warning signs like unusual noises, vibrations, or dashboard warning lights.
