MOTORCYCLE Brand New SIDE CAR FOR Royal ENFIELD,HARLEY DAVIDSON,BMW,VESPA,LAMBRThe MOT test is an annual test of roadworthiness. Cars and motorcycles undergo an annual MOT test from when they are four years old and all light goods vehicles with an unladen weight up to and including 3,500Kg are tested annually from they are three years old. All vehicles can be tested at any of the 15 Driver & Vehicle Agency (DVA) test centres in Northern Ireland by vehicle test examiners. The MOT test is a legal requirement to ensure that all vehicles are roadworthy and safe to be used on a public road. Vehicle tests may be booked online, by post or in person at one of the test centres, or by phone (using a valid credit or debit card). Following the introduction of EU legislation, the motorcycle annual inspection in Northern Ireland changed on 6 October 2014. The complete test process was revised and two additional elements were introduced: You are reminded to wear suitable footwear when presenting  your motorcycle for  inspection.

A quadricycle (quad) is a four-wheeled vehicle with an unladen weight not exceeding 400kg and whose maximum engine power does not exceed 15 kW.motorcycles for sale grand junction colorado Many quads have been sold as ‘road legal’ and they have been supplied by the manufacturer with a Certificate of Conformity (CoC). rolla motorcycle shopThis CoC indicates that the quad complies with the technical requirements applicable to a motor tricycle.motorcycle repair eureka ca Whilst these quads have been built to the technical requirements of a motor tricycle, under Northern Ireland legislation, as they have four wheels, they must be classified as ‘motor cars’. motorcycle tire mounting sacramento

If tested as a motor car, they will not comply with the statutory requirements as found in the NI Construction & Use Regulations and Lighting Regulations, therefore a fail notification will be issued. However, in this instance, European legislation takes precedent over National legislation. This means quads that have been built and issued with a CoC or a Motorcycle single vehicle approval (MSVA) certificate can be tested under the European legislation and where they meet this, they will be issued with a test pass certificate. Quads that do not have a CoC or MSVA Certificate cannot be tested under the European legislation and cannot be booked for an MOT. The check for a CoC or MSVA Certificate will be carried out at the time of booking the test. To get an application form and other online forms see the links below: Customers should note that the online and telephone booking service is not available for quadricycles. Quadricycle application’s must be submitted to a DVA test centre.

Quadricycle inspections can only be conducted at Coleraine, Craigavon, Mallusk, Newtownards and Omagh test centres. Motor cars, motorcycles and light goods vehicles manufactured or registered before 1960 are exempt from the mandatory MOT test. DVA offers tests on a voluntary basis, but only at the request of the vehicle owner. The bulk of voluntary tests will be from vehicles intended for Cherished Transfers as the registration transfer scheme still requires a test certificate. Pre-1960 vehicles booked for testing will continue to be inspected in the normal way, MOT reminders for these vehicles will no longer be sent out automatically.The requested URL /LENG/Z2/C17414-10/hhcm-Search_Results.html?tag=ski was not found on this server. This article is about the Flag of Northern Ireland. For the traditional provincial flag of Ulster, see Flag of Ulster. The Ulster Banner (Edwardian Crown version following coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953) The Ulster Banner[1] is a heraldic banner taken from the former coat of arms of Northern Ireland, consisting of a red cross on a white field, upon which is a crowned six-pointed star with a red hand in the centre.

It was the flag of the former Government of Northern Ireland and common flag of Northern Ireland from 1953 until that government was abolished in 1972. It was adopted to mark the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, and was first flown over Parliament Buildings on 1 July 1953, in honour of the Queen's visit. The Minister of Home Affairs announced that, while the Union Jack was the only standard officially recognised, those who wished to have a distinctive Ulster symbol might use the banner.[2] Since 1972, the Ulster Banner has had no official status and is not used by the current Northern Ireland government or by the British government.[11] However, the Ulster Banner is still in common use by loyalists/unionists, and to represent Northern Ireland internationally in some sporting competitions. It has become a symbol of Ulster loyalism[6][12] and is a contentious symbol.[13] In recent years there have been calls for a new, neutral flag for Northern Ireland to replace the Ulster Banner. Arms of the former government of Northern Ireland, 1924–1972

Original Tudor Crown version of flag based on escutcheon of arms granted royal warrant in 1924 The arms and flag were designed in Dublin by Ulster King of Arms Neville-Rodwell Wilkinson in 1923–1924. The flag is based on the flag of the traditional province of Ulster,[15] including a Red Hand of Ulster in the centre, and the red de Burgh cross[16] (though some claim this is the Saint George's Cross[17]). It has the addition of a crown to represent the monarchy of the United Kingdom. Rather than a shield, the Red Hand is inside a six pointed star, representing the six counties that make up Northern Ireland. It is blazoned: "Argent a cross gules, overall on a six pointed star of the field ensigned by an Imperial crown proper a dexter hand couped at the wrist of the second". The flag is also sometimes called the Ulster flag,[18] Northern Ireland flag, the (old) Stormont flag, or the Red Hand of Ulster flag.[19] Loyalists often use 'Ulster' as another name for Northern Ireland, and Stormont was the seat of Northern Ireland's government.

In 1924, the Government of Northern Ireland was granted its own coat of arms by Royal Warrant and had the right to display these arms on a flag or banner. This right was exercised for the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. From 1953 until 1972, the flag was used officially by the Government of Northern Ireland and also as a de facto civic flag for Northern Ireland. In 1972, the Government and Parliament of Northern Ireland were abolished by the Parliament of the United Kingdom under the Northern Ireland Constitution Act 1973. Since the Government of Northern Ireland was abolished in 1972, the flag (and variations thereof) has continued to be used by unionists. In 2004, Belfast City Council commissioned a study on the flying of flags which noted that the Ulster Banner continued to be flown, alongside the Union flag, by three unionist-controlled local authorities in Northern Ireland: Ards Borough Council, Carrickfergus Borough Council and Castlereagh Borough Council. The Ulster Banner is used to represent Northern Ireland at the Commonwealth Games[21][22] and by FIFA to represent the Northern Ireland national football team.
