Just watched two traffic officers pull over a couple of middle aged blokes on R1s who were riding a bit quick in a 40 limit. They were polite, pulled over and took off helmets etc and admitted they might have been going a bit faster than 40 but the following cops couldn't give a definitive speed so didn't book them for that offence. They did mention an undertake on a dual carriageway that one officer said was "verging on Dangerous Driving", I don't think that officer realises that undertaking per se isn't illegal and ought to read his law books a bit more closely. However, they did have small plates and put their hands up to it.

Next on the list was the exhausts - one was a Yoshi and the other a Wolf, both had quiet baffles in and weren't loud, but the coppers gave them each a ticket because they weren't BS or E marked. Try as I might I can't find an E mark anywhere on my standard Kawasaki exhaust, so why the hell should they expect to see one on an aftermarket one?

That is taking things a bit too far in my opinion and doesn't help the police to make friends amongst road users of any kind.
