It can only be ridden in daylight hours because it has no lights not because of a make believe daytime mot.

It isn't clear. I'd say that if it isn't too much hassle, fit one and your covered regardless.
Marmalade is correct. There is no such thing as a daylight MoT. What there is is an MoT with an advisory note restricting the use to daylight hours.
My R6 has an R&G tail tidy (TT) on it and part of the TT is a small dual LED light which is sodding bright considering its size.
I got an advisory in Sept 2013 as water ingress meant it didn't work more often than it did work. I bought another one which was not too badly priced. I know that technically dosn't answer your question but if i had to place a percentage on the time it was off vs on it would be 80/20 and it still passed with only an advisory. This was at an official Yamaha dealer too.
Cheers all.
I think I'll take the advice on board and fit a plate light anyway.
Found some on amazon which you can just bolt through your plate or use instead of the plate fitment nut and bolts.
Now to find the hacksaw and start sawing.
The only other note to add is that the white light must not be directly visable from the rear. That is an MoT fail.
You can get very powerful discreet LED number plate lights.
