If you genuinely dont feel you were in the wrong (or think you can put enough doubt in their minds) then go for it.

Otherwise dont waste your time.

I once fought a ?180 fine and 3 points for apparently going the wrong way down a one way street, alot of people said i didnt stand a chance of defending it.

I collected some evidence of about 20 people having to perform the same manourver as I had to and managed to get the to drop the case.

Misinformation. Free to leave Wales and free to enter on a bike. Cars get charged to enter Wales.

it's been a while since we were up there, so it's probably changed

they must've changed it to account for all the holiday makers heading to the beaches of porthcawl, to date still the only place i almost vomited my liver up after ingesting some seawater...

mate, i live on the english channel, compared to the waters at porthcawl it's like drinking the finest wine from the navel of a virgin

i guess i should have known something wasn't right with the iridescent green foam that was floating in on the tide

F.p for Yoshi exhaust- but doesnt say not for road use and I was told in good faith when I bought the bike that it was Ok.
Right then Quiff, I say don't bother! Been speaking to my neighbour, high ranking traffic cop, and he also recommends you do not bother.

1 - The Plate was obviously the wrong size or font yeah?

2 - Even though your exhaust does not say 'Not For Road Use' it does not mean it is legal, the old bill look for either a 'BS' or 'E' stamp on exhausts and if you have neither then the exhaust is illegal. It is no longer the police's policy to prove your exhaust is illegal, it is yours to prove it is legal by displaying a 'BS' or 'E' stamp. This does not mean that by riveting on one of those badges to a race can will help you get away with it, if the old bill think it is suspicious they will test the bike! A rider has already faced a 'perverting the course of justice' charge in the past!
