As I have 5 points on me Licence I wouldn't risk it!

I have to be a good boy for at least a few months!

So there is no Black visor either!

I got caught for speeding and they just gave me three points. They pointed out my race exhaust and the fact that my indicators didn't have an e-marking but didn't do anything about it. Never said anything about the dark visor, numberplate or lack of tax disc.

mines got i bigger bore. not sure what size, but i got a +2mm piston (it was the biggest one the shop sold for tzrs) then i took the cylinder off and took it to an engineers to get bored out. it was quite easy to do, and not very expensive at all.if my powervalve wasnt knackered it waould be fast as poo off a shovel.. its a good thing to do. when its all done ill have to meet you some time to have a look at it, im gonna be going up north again in the summer.

Same thing happened to a bird that works in the bike shop down here!

So lesson of the day... don't get caught speeding and they won't really be bothered to tug u for illegal mods!!! (Unless the copper hasn't filled his quota for the day)!!! Mind u, if u do get caught just for that sort of thing, i expect they would just give u a NORTI

29-04-2004, 12:57 PM
or a HORTI.... something like that!!! Can't remember!!!
