You'll have loads of people coming on here soon and having a go at you for considering it...it's a very touchy subject

You will not be insured as you're not riding within the requirements of your license; however the police would be none the wiser and they will have no reason to pull you over unless you're being a plonker. So if you insist on taking it out, make sure everything (I mean everything) is ok with the bike and you have all of your papers present + don't show off and draw attention to yourself.

I personally know several bikers who either removed their restriction kit early or didn't bother at all, and they didn't have any trouble. Doesn't mean it won't happen though!! If you get caught it'll be 6 points (so a ban for you) and a hefty fine.

Why would it push up premiums since he wouldn't be insured?
