my friends went to classic show at amberley then to bury hill and boxhill on sunday.i didn't ride that day at all as i went to watch my mate's rock band
at a hockey festival of all things!!!that's a whole other story, it was carnage - all p#**ed on snakebite and blackcurant, buckets of it drunk through funnels:smt078.....priceless!!
but confirm i saw 4 police bikes! (not seen any on bikes for ages!!) and 3 cars within few minutes of each other on a272 when in cage.
plus speed trap devils dyke, steyning to washington road, etc, etc.
as they were on their classics didn't get much attention, however sports bikers were being targeted for plates/pipes, any indiscretion. taking numbers when they came into park, in unmarked cars too, and talking to them about their systems and noisy pipes.one guy got £30 fine for full american ti system on his kwakker 6..
The guys managed to speak to one and was told zero tolerance for bikers in sussex on suns and bank holidays. They said (and this is where i'm not sure how concrete it is that from july 1st noisy pipes & small plates means 3 points)
now this is first i've heard of it , apparently that's what they are doing. the guys pointed out does this apply to harley able-to riders too with slash pipes and tiny plates? the copper said this has been raised but don't hold your breath, its us they are out to get
just be warned!!
just heard a mate on a ktm supermoto on sunday got followed by bikes (he has no mirrors on it and was his excuse when he was stopped eventually) charged with failing to stop for an officer
how many points is that ??? 7 to 10?? ouch
