you need to rev the knackers off them to get anywhere and watch the back wheel locking up!

I think the old bill need more of a refresh on the laws more than anybody else these days....

yeah they are but coppers don't know the law. As said; x of gaffa tape, job done. That's what my instructor does anyway.

Whatever you do, take all the paperwork then if you do get plodded that should be the end of it there and then.

I'm picking it up from Widnes in the morning, then riding it back down to Caernarfon. So I'll be getting the train up in the morning, then I've arranged with ziv that he'll follow me from Bangor to Caernarfon, and give me a lift back to Bangor. :)

Still likely to get a pull if seen. I've been pulled on 2-up on a CBR125, taped over L plated with the owner on the back.

Was quite funny really, saw the police car coming the other way and knew as soon as I did he was going to pull me, watched him in the mirrors do a U turn behind me and follow before flipping the lights on and pulling me over.
"Is this your bike sir?", "er no it's hers" and point to the pillion! :lol:

Didn't even get a producer as he got called away to something more serious.

Anyway, back to any point I was trying to make, you should be OK with taped up L plates but carry all your documents to save having to visit a police station for a producer later...

Nifty little bike, one of those. I wouldn't have minded one if I'd stopped at CBT.
