mot - exhaust
my xv535 failed for the exhaust being stamped "not for highway use"(i never realised this and it had passed the last 2 yrs at the same garage),after some kind advice from another forum i was informed that a little bit of tape over the offending words would be enough for it to pass.......it did and only got an advisory for being loud so if anyone has this problem it might help.

not very good at geek stuff but if you go to "electrex world" and then go to the "technical" section, then click on regulator/rectifiers, you will have a step by step guide to battery charging probs.Site also shows step by step guides to resolving other problems and fitting other electrical products.
