Not with the shite rubber he had on it when I saw it, he'd fall off at the 1st bend.

i do believe that the local constabulary was being a little economical with the truth
the speed trap concerned is a measured distance trap and takes a pictue of the front of the vehicle
hence the description - a mainly yellow bike, with the rider wearing blue leathers
(I could be wrong about this of course!)
BUT - i do know a local chap, not known for being slow, who has VERY recently bought some new leathers as he no longer liked his blue ones, and while he was at it, added some white decals to his yellow ducati.....
of course this could just be a coincidence....
