attract attention to yourself by being a 'hooligan' and they'll notice and ask questions. Behave and be sensible and you're fine. Mine is out every day except for MOT time. Been to plenty of events where there are and have been police, and past them on the road without any trouble.
There is a sticky thread about baffles and numberplates which would be advisable to read

Nope. Just ease it down to lower revs when they're around and I've never been given a second look.

I don't ride like a complete ar$e anyway so don't have to change too much when I see them.

Cut the end off my can with grinder, destroyed the baffle, replaced the end of the can, now have a stubby that sounds great and it has passed 3 MOT's since then and the rozzers never look twice!
