Default Dodgy bike?

Just thought I'd share this.

I was pootling down the M1 last night when I came up on another bike.
Didn't think much of it until I got closer and saw his number plate appeared to be blacked out.
Had a closer look and it wasn't a number plate at all just a black plate screwed in where the plate should be.

No wing mirrors, no indicators, lights not on......the heck?
Had no idea what I was meant to do about something like that so I just over took and went on my way, quick glance in the mirrors, blacked out visor and leather gear watching me go =/

Are you supposed to report stuff like that or what.

Probably a track bike on his way back from Silverstone. You said that you over took him so perhaps he lost out on a ride home and was trying not to draw attention to himself!

I wouldn't do that either.

Personally, I'd find it quite tricky locating a Federal Officer in London.... :P
