I did ask this before but i think it got lost at the back of another post

When I go for a 'day light' MOT on my 250T will they make allowances for cable brakes? I can't compete with disc type brake performance

As long as they work well you should be o.k.

i am a mot tester its very rare for a bike to fail mot on brakes they have to be very poor to fail

if your brakes stop you ok they wont fail an mot

Youve probably got your MOT by now, but for what its worth, thighten the cables right up till there is vitually no play. I dont clean the

braking surface in the hubleaving it to go rusty, crude but improves the braking enough to pass !

Okay just got back from the MOT station today, and it failed on 'noise' only, now that's not bad for a 1973, people that know about Bultaco's know they have a 3 piece system, well.... i have the last section missing so i expected it to be loud, is there anything that i can do to quieten the old girl down without having to buy the final section, can i pack the second section with anything just to get it through the MOT?
