- - First ride on SV... (http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=58483)

Hi All,
Restriction - What a stupid law - totally un policeable - who ever checks to see if your SV, R6, or Blade have been restricted ? And how many riders have only a standard licence and cant be bothered to get their bike restricted and take a chance ? Loads I bet. I mean, if you're not into treble figures what are the chances of getting stopped ? there's got to be a better way than leaving it down to individuals honesty:?:

They will only give me the the old ECU when either i sell the bike or my restriction is up.

Thats outrageous! If I understand it correctly, they were lying, its nothing to do to them to 'police' you. I wonder why they were so keen to keep your ECU? Perhaps they sell them on or something.

With mine it wasn't even a query, I got the bike with the restrictor and longer links already in place. They handed me the original ECU and links before I could say anything.
