Okay, this is for all those people who decided to do their A2 test for some or the other reason.

You're also missing a:

'Not got restrictors, bike most likely under 33bhp anyway and not been pulled!'

Not to mention all those people still currently within their restriction periods!

As Chris says you are missing the "had restriction and was checked"



Seems like a pretty irresponsible poll with loaded answers which MAY encourage people to ride illegaly.

IIRC there was a thread on this about 2 months ago.

As had been said your poll is also loaded.

And there's no option for kep them in for x time then removed them early.

Out of interest, If i get pulled and questioned as to whether my bike is 33bhp and i tell them that it is knowing full well that its not what happens next? Do they sieze the bike on the spot to check or do they book an appointment in the future (therefore allowing a few days to get something sorted?)

Not that my bikes actualy more than 33bhp officer

Well none of the options apply to me if i have read them properly,

I have still got my restrictors in and have 19 months to go.

I'm within the 2 years and can't vote, because I'm taking my kit out early (not to be illegal, I want to take my accelerated access so I don't have to ride illegally).

Vote: Had the kit fitted but removed early

My restriction runs out in July, it seems only recently that I took off my L-plates.

I voted for the first one, *fingers crossed*

Your also forgetting that it depends on how often you ride, more you ride means more chance of getting pulled.

I might have taken my restrictors out sayyyyy 2 months after getting them put in, my bikes on the DVLA database as restricted, so the only way theyll find out is to take the bike, and most of things that i might illegally do, warrant points, not seizure as my bikes completely road legal bar the restrictors.

I dont think theyd have any grounds to seize it on tbh... Unless someone knows more about this?

this thread has been done to death. seriously, realistically the only time you are likely to have the restriction questioned is after an accident, particulary a major accident where insurance companies are involved. then it is highly likely to be checked. and depending on what happens the police might impound the bike at the scene therefore you dont have a chance to put them back in before they check it. not worth the risk imo. ive got 12 months left on mine, and my restrictor is an ecu jobby - pop the seat, swap the chip... 5 mins and done. it is tempting but knowing my luck i know what would happen....

im coming to the end of my restriction period now, i got a garage to "fit" some restrictors, and do me the cert, so iv been riding a full power nc30 for 2 years, iv been pulled twice and no one has ever mentioned the restriction to me.

id say if you go get them fitted, ride with them for as long as you want to get used to having power on tap then when you feel confident, wack em out.
