Motorbike MOT in South Brent
Bikes based in South Brent often cover fast A38 stretches then steep climbs home, and a motorcycle MOT checks the toll.

South Brent is a stopping point on the A38 between Exeter and Plymouth, with the River Avon beside it and hills climbing towards the moor. Machines that live here tend to do long fast stretches on the main road, then steep climbs on the way home.
At Automaster, our garage near Totnes tests motorcycles, with repairs and retests available if something fails. Below is how it all works, in plain terms and without the jargon.
Motorcycle MOT: what is inspected?
Long main road stretches and moor climbs ask a lot of certain parts, though every area is covered. Fast main road miles can wear tyres and drive components, while climbs test brakes and suspension.
- Tyres and wheels
- Brakes
- Chain, belt or shaft drive
- Steering and suspension
- Exhaust, lights and horn
Which motorbike MOT class applies?
Motorcycles up to 200cc are Class 1 and over 200cc are Class 2. We need the make, model, registration and engine size to confirm the class. Send those details with your booking and we will reply with the class before you come in.
Fail, repair, retest: your motorbike MOT options
Defects are dangerous, major or minor, and advisories flag things to watch. Ride nothing with a dangerous defect until it is fixed. Repairs can happen on site followed by a retest, and terms depend on the faults and timing, so ask when you book online or by phone. Having it all done at one garage keeps the job simple for a rider with a daily commute.
Whether you ride every week or only when the sun is out, ask for a quote or get in touch to book your motorbike MOT in South Brent with Automaster.

Questions about motorbike MOTs in South Brent
Do Ivybridge and South Brent riders come to you?
Riders from nearby places such as Ivybridge and Buckfastleigh visit Longcombe Cross. Give us your registration when booking, and we will confirm the class and the plan for the visit.
When is my bike's first test?
Three years after first registration, then every year. Ask us if you are not sure of the date, and we will go through it with you before you plan your visit.
Does the MOT replace a service?
No. It is a snapshot of roadworthiness on test day, so ask us about any other work. A pass tells you the bike met the test that day, and nothing more than that.
