they can tell by that the bike goes over 30 Razz, remember it means you dont have insuance, road tax ect so if they do find out bend over Wink

but not many people keep there bikes that slow.

What would happen if you were 17 with a desrestricted moped, but had notified your insurers?

when i crashed the cop who closed the road off noticed my race exhaust system on my bike but didn't say anything, he is an ex-biker, so he was cool with me and my m8 who also had a race exhaust, its like getting done for having a tinted visor on the coppers simply cant be arced unless they are really picky

Everyone i know who had a moped a while back had there bike de-restricted, it's also safer. The many times we got pulled over the police never said anything. It's so normal to get it done it's the last thing you worry about when getting pulled over & i've been pulled by some miserable coppers before. Smile

Can you de-restrict 125s? Or is that diffrent for off-road style bikes?

Yea when i had a 50 moped and wasnt that clever as got caught but a policecar at 50mph in a 30mph so caught me red handed and gave me a tell off Thumbs Up, i dont think that they can prove it unless they clock you or have a camera and not worth their while so let me off.

Yourll be fine and a lot safer like misc says Thumbs Up

Down here the police have a dyno machine and pull over random bikes on L plates going past the plod station and check they are restricted, people caught have just been made to pay to get their bikes restricted again. So really they arnt going to catch you as i think that’s only here in Taunton they do that. I would say just do it and just try not to crash

You probably wouldn't even need to tell your insurers. A derestricted 50cc isn't going to have as much power as a learner legal 125.

lol ppl tune there bike 2 24bhp+ and use them on the road. 172, pipe, porting ect
u will find that most geared 125 bikes here have been derestricted and can do 100 mph.
now your question is how can the police find out your bike is derestricted.
by haveing a pipe it dont meant your bike is de resticted as they normaly come restricted so they cant do u for a pipe.
since my sis is a pcso ( yer i know she lets me ride my nsr) she stops ppl on peds every day and all she can do is get the trafic police out 2 check the bike. now she told me theres a new law comeing out soon that the police will be alowed 2 take the bike away and get it dyno'ed and they might have dyno's in vans. well the dynos in vans i aint 2 sure about that. but u will be ok if u got a derestricted bike
