Any Traffic Cops Out There?

[Hello there mandem]

I was wondering, how often do you check 33bhp bikes, or hear of them being checked up?

Thanks

Jack

the best thing to ask is how often do people get pulled over? the only reason they'll ever check your restriction is if they have another reason to pull you over.

ride safely and dont do anything stupid and there shouldnt be a problem.

It does happen, obviously if you are pulled over for 110mph+ then it's clear that it's over, if not then you might be lucky. Traffic and bike cops seem to know more than bog standard police, but then again the only time's I've ever been pulled over have been in townish areas, not dual carriageways or fast roads.

Not sure about the 33bhp restriction, however, recently the plod squad have been pulling over 'L' Platers near me and sticking their bike on a rolling road, if it goes over 28mph for a 16 year old or 11kW or w/e it is for a 17 year old, bye bye licence.

Luckily for me, to any police officer besides the motorcycle ones, mine looks like a 125 so less likely to be pulled.

As for 33bhp, I assume like Pyro said, if you aren't out there doing 110mph or so, you're not likely to get pulled.

I've been riding and driving for about 3 and half years now. I've never been pulled.

Its funny, i have a friend who had a gilera runner 50 when he was 16 and dispite my best efforts and 2 years "added wisdom" on his behalf he still swears that it did 65mph, i thought that was bad enough! Seriously though 75mph i cant help but laugh at the thought

I get stopped often, but then i wear hoodies and ride like a twat...

I can remember during my two years twice i was stopped (unrestricted) and they dident believe my protests of 33bhp ness,

What was the sum of their wroth? a producer with "33bhp certificiate" scribbled on...

Me and joeb64 i think his name is on here, both on restricted bikes, (Sv650s and a Drz400) were stopped twice in one day for routine checks, not once asked about the restriction but if i was to ever destrict it, it would be my luck to get caught, then again lastnight stopped for parking in a industrial estate checked details but nothing about the restriction law. Lots of police in Yorkshire

Cheers Kris.

[Hello there mandem]

ok then, lets say for instance i took them out, i go the correct citificate. Will they take me to a dyno if im polite. are dynos the last resort for Unrespectful twats. The dyno has got to be a waste opf their time and my money!!

[kawakid]

Have a newish well maintained naked bike.

Wear proper kit, from head to toe. (No lidl specials).

Wear a hi-vis at all times.

Keep good lane discipline.

Don't speed.

Follow the highway code to the letter.

Don't hang around with your 16 your old mates/brothers on street corners.

And you should be okay for your 2 year restriction period of not getting pulled.

Ive been pulled twice offically for going over 110mph (couple other times when they only heard me coming )

First time it was an average over a mile of 110mph and no mention of restrictions was ever brought up (and this included court).

Second time i was caught doing 160odd mph but the police bike could only do 122mph so couldnt prosecute me for more Asked about restrictions, called back up to "take a look" at my bike. Ended up they were going to take it there and then from the road side and strip it so i confessed (sort of) and got the bike back the next day and road it away from where it was held Bloody expensive overnight bike park that was!
