legal.

only grey area is that the (standard sized) plate is tucked up *very* tight under the numberplate light so you can't really read the top line from standing behind it. but it was like that when I bought it.

don't see the point in not having your bike legal. asking for trouble.
In the garage:
Kawasaki ZXR400 L3 - shiny
Suzuki DR800 - bouncy
1978 Suzuki GS400 - PROJECT RETRO RACER!
Kawasaki GPz500S - for sale soon
Honda CG125 BR-J - in bits

Better watch out for the no tax thing rene, I got an automatic fine throught the door one when I didn't realise mine ran out.
Mine are: Small plate and no plate light, race system and full power on restricted licence, also got mods that I haven't declared on my insurance yet.
I've got all the original bits to change back if needed though :smt003

Sounds very dangerous to me!!! :smt119

For the benefit of any Police or Insurance companies reading this - My bike is totally legal and I've never done more than 72mph and even that was whilst overtaking with the wind behind me!

:smt059

So no need for anyone to look out for me! :smt002

You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defence if you do not mention, when questioned, something which you later rely on in court. Anything you do say may be given in evidence.

PMSL!!!

I think now is the time for a few people to try out that 'EdIT' button in the top right of their posts... :smt002

Or how about changing it to "The most Illegal bike you ever rode (entirely fictional of course)"??? :smt002

I'd love to say that all my bikes are completly illegal and then laugh my tits off if some busy-body plod with f*@k all better to do actually came round to check them.

If there are any actually reading this thread (which wouldn't surprise me ) then piss off and do some real work , like catching burglars and drug dealers, or better yet go help the Portuguese find that poor little girl, or is that too much like hard work........

Sorry guys, rant over :smt002
