Urgent Help needed.. - SV650.org

Just had a call from the girl who bought me SV.

She just got pulled at a meeting for the race can. She now has to have the standard can put back on and report to the station (not unusual). But the policeman (attitude problem apparently) has demanded that the can be fitted by a garage, and has demanded proof from the garage...

Is this demand normal??

Cheers for your help peeps.

wudnt have thght so!!

mayeb he was on a power trip cos she is a female biker ! pras he got off on it..

Actually very unusual,

1st the police have better things to do than to check bikes at the station so they issue a rectification notice that must be signed by an MOT station, the notice is then produced to the police station

2 nd the police can not issue a decree that the can must be fitted by a garage,

I think she has mixed up the instruction she was given.

I'm pretty sure that he can give a rectification notice or a fixed penalty for it. He can't make any specification as to how the rect notice is conformed to, since he's not an MOT tester, the guy who signs it is.

They can give you a rectification notice, but this only means that an approved MOT testing station must sign the notice to approve that the defect has been put right, I think that they cannot enforce you to have the work done by a garage though.

Sounds like he talking rubbish to me....

why she not on here asking us helpful people? you told her about this place?

demanding fixed by a garage and proof sounds like a rectification notice tbh... think Patch is right maybe she confused what he meant...

Have explained the situation to her, she seems happy to hear it, but i have somehow been talked into taking the can to her... round the other side of the M25...

Not happy!! Her step dad is blaming me....

How am i at fualt, the bike was sold with an advertised race can, and she has signed a sold as seen notice...

Not happy at all!!!
