Seabeowner:
I've also read this elsewhere:
"It will become a rolling forty year exemption from next year unless 'Substantially Modified' - a definition which is yet to be finalised. Bikes etc from 2022 while they sort out how to classify substantially modded for that category."

speedibee:
does not apply to bikes or 3 wheelers until 2022 , for the purposes of consultation  bikes were included in all surveys and data collection
 and  classic were were deemed to be well enough maintained by their owners not to need a test , but their owners are not MPs and other notable persons ,so they must continue to pay the local garage owners son ,who doesn't know his arsehole from breakfast time ,to tell them that their bike is safe to ride .

I thought they were going to use the current DVLA 8 point criteria for 'substantially modified'?

I have read the consultation doc but I couldn't see anything about 2022, just 2018. I may have missed it or miss read it though.

kent400:
No I can't find any reference to 2022  Julie.

If you google 'roadwothyness testing for vehicles of historic interest' It states that lighter vehicles and states that means cars, and motorcycles over 40 years are exempt from testing provided they have not been substantially modified.
