Problem being, have changed the pads and it has no mot. so by the time that the mot is completed then possibly the brakes by reading the above will be fubarred.

as they will not have been bedded in. well not as the above states.....

Comments welcomed.....

I'm not quite sure what you're meaning??? Can you give me a bit more to go on?

well after reading the link thoroughly they say that there is not a problem, as to warped disks. But in fact it is a transfer of material onto the disk that causes the feeling of warped disks.
due to the mot station being around a mile away theres not going to be much chance of getting the pads bedded in so when they do the brake test there will be a chance of transferring pad deposits onto the disks. when they come to a solid stop.

Just take the slightly longer route to the MOT station whilst very lightly dragging the brake on & off, they will be fine mate

Find a quiet stretch of road. Run the bike up to a good speed and slam the brakes on, without crashing. Do this three times and they will be fine. A country lane in the wee hours is a good bet, just make sure you've checked for cow shite, mud, dead animals, etc.
