SteveD CB500K0:
As long as the bars don’t hit the tank it’ll be fine.
MOT failure (right Bryan?)
Oh. You don’t need an MOT

Looks like most of the ones i saw back when current and if it needed mot and hit yes it would fail but as Steve said it dont and it didnt
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I even wondered if it was a poor casting as the ground sections are not identical.
flatfour:
My 500/4 had the same damage to the lock stop and it was found on an MOT (albeit many years after it became mine, and the umpteenth MOT at the same dealer).
It didn't fail because the bars didn't touch the tank, although I replaced it as a matter of course when I renewed the steering head bearings as the differences in available lock left and right proved an irritation after the issue was pointed out to me.
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Are the 400 & 500 steering heads the same they look similar?
