Are ITV really necessary for Moto? This devastating report says otherwise …

It is not a Japanese horror movie, they are photos of motorcycles distributed by AECA-TV and, nevertheless, they are quite afraid. Moto users are responsible and in a way it is, as they recognize 84.3% of the motorcycles, the ITV passed to the first. The problem comes with that remaining 15.7%.

Of this remaining 15.7% there is a part that does not affect security, such as 15.4% of them because they did not go through emissions. But the rest already becomes more worrying because 32.4% of those who did not pass it was due to lighting or signaling failures, and this in a vehicle in which they are more complicated to see us for its volume is something highly important.

But more striking and worrying is the fact that 12.4% of the total that did not pass the ITV to the first, did not do so for serious defects in tires, axes, wheels and suspensions. These data are already worrisome, but it is that AECA-OV has shared some photos of these defects, and the truth is that we find situations impossible to justify.

The decoration is fine, but if security affects the thing the thing changes

Failures as serious in the ITV as not having brakes or not having a rolling band

And it is that the photos give a lot, but what a lot of fear. For example, one stands out in which it looks like a rear brake clamp, one of the screws is not and the other is loose. Although it is not usual when the ITV does not pass by brakes, if it is important to emphasize that 9.7% of the motorcycles that did not pass it was due to deficiencies with this.

It also attracts attention, perhaps because of the unconsciousness or by the impudence the motorcycle that arrives without rolling band to pass the ITV. It is simply inconceivable to present to pass the inspection not with the tire below the legal limits but directly in the canvases.

Another striking photo is that of the motorcycle, a scooter in this case, which arrives with the shock absorber without fixing the motorcycle after having lost the screw. Beyond that it can or may not work with the shock absorber on the other side, which being a scooter is even if we do not see it, the dangerous thing is that this loose damping can interfere with the tire itself, the tire or the body, causing a high -risk situation.

The rear shock absorber without anchor is a vital risk

To finish off and this is more a matter of modifications, there is the “tuned” handlebar of this other scooter. In addition to changing the fists and counterweights of these, accessories are seen in the brake handles, in addition to other elements such as a stuffed animal, a kind of clock and a mobile support, which can prevent the handlebar turn from the time.

From the ITV employer, AECA-OV have wanted to emphasize the importance of having the motorcycle a day and that is, precisely because of the same reason that 84.6% pass the inspection to the first one, the rest of the rest that a bad maintenance affects our safety must be aware. In addition, that this little more than 15% give wings to justify these ITV for motorcycle and delegitimize the general discourse.
