Get pulled and cop says "I'm impounding your bike as it - Page 4 - SV650.org

I'm confused... I didn't think a slack chain is dangerous... Unless you don't have a chain guard. And they can't say the can is dangerous as the loud pipe doesn't make a bike dangerous. Its rather difficult for them to prove that something is dangerous... the only things that might do it is bald tyres, or the bike blowing a ton of smoke.

If a chain jumps off, it's pretty dangerous- might not injure you, but losing all power suddenly isn't exactly safe.

Should of gotten out the 2 rear axle spanners and the from your toolkit and handed them to him and said with a cheery smile, "here you are mate, set it how you want..."

yeh but looking the way i do and being so close the the american ambassadors residence in the aprk at the time assured plenty of armed cops were around. And if i'd made any sudden moves i'd expect to hear the crakle of an MP5 very shortly afterward, followed by a dull thudding felling in my chest and head.
After all they are happy to execute a nice Brazillian bioy who had nothing more than a free newspaper in his hands. Image me pulling out metal items from under my seat and pointing them at a cop

swear they use mp7's now!!??
