Got a fuel exhaust, sounds awesome without baffles.
What is the penalty if stopped without baffles fitted ??
Fine, points etc ??

six lashings with the cat o nine tails on the testicles then forced to sit on a hedgehog-
probably end up with a ticket and a talking too-you should be ok aslong as its not too loud-use common sense when riding and don't blast it in built up areas.

$30 fine, no points. Yes I know my pound sign no longer works.

Some people may start riding without baffles just to receive that punishment!!:D
My baffle is currently......not in the exhaust.
I know it's cheeky, but if I knowingly ride past a police car, I always clutch in. Or if I need to use the throttle, short shift with small throttle.
Spose I should find it and keep it under the seat.:rolleyes:

Mine's a safety feature, I got knocked off last year, driver didn't look or indicate. If I'd have had the baffle out, there's no doubt he would have heard me and not turned across my path.

I'm sure bluepete said the other day exhausts are still £30 - only illegal plates went up.

Safety eh? Must add that to the notes. I got a right dirty look from a PCSO when I flew past one once.
