Not as I understand it. If I, on my fully insured and legal bike, get written off by captain d1ckhead without insurance I would be forced to claim on my insurance as the chances of retreiving any costs from the aforementioned captain would be far from certain through a civil court case, especially if he has no money.

yea the majority seem to be coming down on me like a ton of bricks for even considering the idea,

but im sure at my age or back when you had your bike needing restricted you all considered it to.

I don't mind looking daft, i went through my life so far looking daft and chances are I'll go through the rest. I will ride what I want because I think its degrading to be stuck on a 20 year old bike when some one 4 years older can do the same test on a different bike and go out and buy a brand new R1 or a busa

And that is the patronising attitude the DVLA and the rest take, and the reason only a dribbling spastic would have any respect left for the laws of this country.

I do however fully agree that considering or admitting to any illegal act would be rather silly.

Like I say, the people who shout the loudest were never affected by the rule.

well there are a lot of older bikes out there that can rip your head off.
I've got someone sat next to me that could put you straight on that one.
Nowt degrading about old bikes.

Theres something degrading about it when you have no choice in the matter but to have a 20 year old tiny capacity bike which most of the time are physically tiny and designed for any one under 5'6" as soon as your taller your the most uncomfortable person on the road
