restrictor to be removed

I finished my November last year. No they do not give you a new license.

The one time I was pulled I had an argument with Mr Plod when he said, "Is this bike restricted"
To which I replied, "No, officer"

"Well it should be"
"Erm, the restriction is for two years from the date of pass...
"No, you have a restricted license the bike should be restricted"

Now I'm getting annoyed to which I say, "Ok, please can you phone the DVLA or your boss and ask him to confirm this"

He checks the rest of the bike over, and says have a safe ride and goes.

DVLA say no you dno't NEED to and they charge your hard earned cash for a new one.

thing is its the hassle of getin pulled over say i was on a hyabusa get pulled and it says 25kw u gta explain to them ahh jesus some of them r fikk oh dear

My restriction ends on the 2rd

If you get a ban, when they return your license they will have removed it

Don't have to change you're license, but I think you can get it updated for the very reasonable sum of sixty British pounds sterling!

Don't forget to take photocopies and get them certified by someone (copper, doctor, brief etc) and make sure you've still got test pass certificate etc. as the DVLA are likely to "forget" you've got a bike license if you send yours in.

So what happens then when they screw up like that and you only have a bike category?

technically you are driving otherwise in accordance with your license.

Yeah theres alot of bad stories about that, am fine with the fact I was restricted on my license, but if I got it removed, I think that increases the bikes performance by 5 bhp!

My restriction expires in march, but license expires 2 years after that so im guessing it will be removed off my license when i get the new 1
